  • ProPress XL crimp connection installs quickly without soldering

ProPress XL Reducer for 3 in to 1-1/4 in Copper

This Viega ProPress XL reducer joins a 3 in copper tube on the fitting side to a 1-1/4 in tube on the press-fit side. It is designed for potable water systems where a straight transition between those two sizes is required. Installers working on commercial or residential plumbing projects will find it suited for new installations and repairs.

Copper Body with EPDM O-Ring Seals at 200 psi

The fitting body is made from copper and uses an EPDM O-ring to create a secure, flameless press connection. It is rated for a maximum operating pressure of 200 psi and a maximum operating temperature of 250 degrees F. The straight adapter shape and 5 in overall length allow it to fit within standard piping layouts without flange or bolt-hole requirements.

Replaces Soldered Reducers When Press Tools Are

This component upgrades from traditional soldered reducers by eliminating the need for open flame, flux and solder on the job site. The press-fit method is worth the switch when a compatible press tool is already in use and local code accepts press connections to ASTM B75 and ASTM B88 standards. It does not serve applications requiring threaded or flanged transitions.

Questions about this item

What pressure does the 200 psi maximum operating pressure cap for the ProPress XL reducer?

The 200 psi rating caps the maximum operating pressure for potable water applications when the fitting is correctly pressed onto copper tubing.

What copper tube sizes and clearance does the 3 in x 1-1/4 in reducer need to fit?

It connects a 3 in copper tube on the FTG side to a 1-1/4 in copper tube on the press-fit side, with an overall length of 5 in.

How is the ProPress XL reducer installed, and what pressing step is often missed?

Insert tubes fully to the stop, then press with a compatible XL press tool and jaw; the common error is using standard-size jaws instead of XL jaws.
