Ensure robust and reliable fluid system connections with the Viega MegaPress 3/4" Copper Nickel Coupling, Part Number 88385. Engineered for demanding marine, offshore, and industrial applications, this coupling features premium CuNiFe 90/10 construction for exceptional corrosion resistance and longevity in harsh environments. The innovative Smart Connect Technology provides an added layer of safety, visually indicating unpressed connections during system tests. Upgrade your critical piping systems with trusted Viega quality and efficiency.

Key Benefits & Specifications:

• Precise 3/4 Inch Sizing: Designed for accurate integration into standard pipe systems, ensuring a perfect fit.
• Advanced CuNiFe 90/10 Construction: Crafted from a non-corrosive copper-nickel wrought alloy, offering superior strength and high resistance to seawater, industrial fluids, and corrosive influences. Suitable for Class 200 and Schedule 40 copper-nickel pipe.
• FKM Sealing Elements: Provides robust, watertight, and airtight connections with excellent chemical resistance and temperature stability, capable of withstanding operating temperatures from 23°F to 284°F (spikes up to 356°F) and resisting oils and petroleum-based additives.
• Efficient Double Press Connection with Stop: Accelerates installation by up to 40% compared to traditional soldering, eliminating the need for welding, brazing, or threading. This flameless operation preserves pipe integrity and can even be installed with residual water in the system.
• Viega Smart Connect Technology: A unique safety feature that visibly identifies unpressed connections during initial system filling or pressure testing with water or compressed air, ensuring system integrity and reducing potential callbacks.

Applications & Certifications: This coupling is approved for a wide range of applications including fresh water (machinery cooling, fire main, potable water), seawater (bilge, ballast, cooling water systems), flammable fluids (cargo oil, fuel oil, hydraulic oil), compressed air systems, and sewage discharge in shipbuilding and industrial markets. It holds NAVSEA approval (for 1/2" - 2" fittings) and United States Coast Guard Acceptance.

Recommended Pairings: Install using Viega-approved electrohydraulic press tools with compatible MegaPress jaws and rings for optimal performance and secure connections.
