Connect PEX With Viega PEX Press Fittings
Mastered in a Minute: Viega has developed one of the fastest and easiest methods for joining PEX.
When making a PEX connection using Viega PEX Press fittings, start by cutting the PEX tubing square. Then push a press fitting onto the tubing, checking the witness holes in the stainless-steel sleeve to ensure the fitting is properly located on the tubing. Using a compatible Pex Press tool held square, press the stainless-steel sleeve. If using a power tool, the connection is complete once the tool has finished its press cycle.
