Tee fitting SC 18 x 15 x 18 copper / shiny, model 2418 Profipress 291938

Copper Tee for Profipress Systems

This copper tee, designed for Viega’s Profipress crimping system, is a reliable solution for creating branches in water installations. Model 2418, with dimensions of 18 x 15 x 18 mm, ensures safe and leak-proof connections, minimizing the risk of leaks. It is a key component for installers who value speed and precision during assembly, as well as end-users expecting long-term, fault-free system performance.

Construction and Application

The tee is manufactured from high-quality copper, guaranteeing corrosion resistance and long service life. It features three compression sleeve connections sealed with EPDM elements — a material known for its elasticity and temperature resistance up to 110°C. Thanks to the SC-Contur technology, connections are easy to verify for tightness during pressure tests — a green dot on the joint confirms proper installation. This tee is suitable for domestic hot and cold water systems (compliant with DIN 1988), heating, rainwater, and compressed air or inert gas systems. It can be installed both in surface-mounted and concealed applications.

Advantages and Benefits

• Fast Installation: The Profipress system enables significantly faster installation compared to traditional soldered or threaded connection methods.
