Viega ProPress 1-1/2" - 90° Copper Elbow - Double Press Connection - Smart Connect Technology

The Viega ProPress 1-1/2" 90° Copper Elbow with Double Press Connection and Smart Connect Technology is a professional-grade press fitting engineered for reliable plumbing and hydronic system installations. Designed for use with ASTM B88 and B75 copper tubing, this elbow delivers the precision and durability expected in both residential and commercial applications where water pressure reliability and long-term corrosion resistance are non-negotiable.

This 1-1/2" 90-degree elbow is constructed from copper and features EPDM sealing elements that provide dependable performance across temperature and pressure ranges typical in potable water distribution and heating systems. The double press connection design allows for two separate press points, eliminating the need for solder or flux and reducing installation time in the field. Viega's Smart Connect Technology ensures consistent, repeatable joints every time, meaning installers can achieve code-compliant connections without the variables introduced by torch work or threading.

Contractors, plumbers, and system designers working with copper piping systems specify press fittings when speed, safety, and joint integrity are equally important. The press-fit method eliminates hot work hazards on job sites and avoids the warranty concerns some building owners express regarding soldered connections in occupied structures. The 90-degree configuration is essential for routing branch lines, changing direction in main runs, and adapting layouts to existing building geometry without custom fabrication.

Viega press fittings remain among the most widely specified systems in North American plumbing because the press connection design delivers repeatability and the company's engineering reduces the training curve for crews adopting the technology. This 77037 model meets the performance demands of municipal water systems, residential hydronics, and light commercial applications where copper distribution is the standard.
