VIEGA reducing tee 42 x 35 x 42 mm, copper press fitting (model 292065)

VIEGA reducing tee 42 x 35 x 42 mm is a copper press fitting designed to create a reduced branch in plumbing and heating pipework. The fitting connects two pipes of 42 mm diameter with a 35 mm branch, providing a reliable pressed joint without soldering. Suitable for potable water systems, heating circuits and other general plumbing installations, this press fitting offers a compact solution for transitions between different pipe sizes while maintaining system integrity.

Advantages

The copper construction ensures corrosion resistance and long service life in water and heating applications. The press connection design enables fast, reproducible installations without open flames and reduces the need for hot-work permits. The reducing tee provides a neat and compact branch connection that preserves hydraulic performance while enabling a change of diameter in a single fitting. The design is compatible with standard press tools and accessories designed for copper press fittings.

Suitable for

• Potable water distribution systems
• Central heating and radiator circuits
• Domestic and commercial plumbing installations
• Retrofit and repair work where a reduced branch is required

Key specifications

• Material: copper
• Connection type: press-fit on all three ends
• Dimensions: main run 42 mm × branch 35 mm × run 42 mm
• Application: water and heating systems
• Joint type: reduced tee for transition between diameters

How to use

Prepare pipes by cutting square and deburring the ends to ensure proper insertion depth. Mark the insertion depth on each pipe, align the fitting and apply the press tool to the fitting collar until a complete press cycle is achieved. Verify the pressed collars visually and, where applicable, perform a pressure test according to local regulations and system requirements. The fitting can be used in concealed and exposed installations when installed in accordance with applicable standards and manufacturer guidance.

Usage recommendations

Use appropriate press jaws and tools rated for copper press fittings and follow the tool manufacturer's instructions. Ensure compatibility of surrounding materials, avoid mechanical stress on joints after pressing, and conduct pressure testing after installation to confirm leak-tightness.
