Press-Fit Street Elbow for Potable Water
This 45-degree street elbow connects a 1-inch press-fit tube to a 1-inch FTG copper tube using Viega Megapress Stainless 316 technology. The fitting body is manufactured from Grade 316 stainless steel and includes an EPDM O-ring for sealing. It is rated for potable-water applications and carries model number 90090.
Suited for Press-Joint Installations Only
Installers who work with press-tool systems on stainless piping will find this elbow compatible with their workflow. It is not intended for threaded, soldered, flanged or grooved joint methods, so buyers needing those connection types should look at other fitting styles.
Rated for 200 psi at 250 Degrees F
Under sustained operating conditions the fitting withstands a maximum pressure of 200 psi and a maximum temperature of 250 degrees Fahrenheit. The Grade 316 stainless construction and EPDM seal maintain integrity throughout this range without degradation from short-term pressure spikes or thermal cycling.

Questions about this item
What pipe size and press-fit tool do I need to install the 1" Megapress 45° street elbow?
The fitting accepts 1" pipe on the press-fit end and requires a compatible Megapress press tool and 1" jaw set to form the seal.
Can I press this 316 stainless elbow onto existing copper tubing of the same nominal size?
The street end is sized for 1" copper tube (FTG), so it inserts into a 1" copper fitting; the press end joins 1" pipe of the same nominal diameter.
How do I verify the joint is sound after pressing the 90090 elbow?
Pressurise the system up to 200 psi at temperatures up to 250 °F and inspect the pressed bead for a uniform, gap-free ring around the fitting.
