1” Brass Water Butt Set Including Brass Valve

WB34-BRASS-KIT-024+

This kit includes:

• 1 x Brass Water Butt Connector: 1" BSP Male to 3/4" BSP Female (WB-BR-34BSPF-1BSPM)
• 1 x Roll of PTFE Tape (PTFE)
• 1 x Brass In-Line Valve ¾” BSP Female to Male (BR-TC-V-34BSPF-M)

The 1" BSP Male to 3/4" BSP Female brass outlet is a durable and versatile fitting designed for rainwater harvesting and other fluid storage systems. Crafted from premium-quality, long-lasting brass, it withstands various environmental conditions to ensure reliable performance over time. This fitting reduces a 1” BSP male thread to a 3/4” BSP female thread, making it a practical choice for connecting pipes or fittings of different sizes in your water butt or container setup.

If your barrel or container already has a female thread, the 1" BSP male connector can be screwed in directly to provide a seamless and secure connection. Where no thread exists, the fitting can be installed by drilling a hole and fastening it with the supplied washers and back nut. This ensures a tight, leak-resistant seal to maintain the integrity of your water storage system.

To fit this device directly to your container, drill a 33mm hole suitable for the 1" BSP male thread. After removing the back nut and one washer, insert the connector through the hole so that the remaining washer rests inside the barrel. Secure the fitting by tightening the nut, with the washer providing added protection against leaks. This easy-to-install component is essential for anyone looking to customise or upgrade their water storage solutions, offering both flexibility and robustness.

The brass in-line valve features ¾” BSP male and female threaded ends and is expertly designed to control water flow in a variety of plumbing and industrial applications. Its threaded construction enables straightforward installation and removal, providing a reliable and secure connection that minimises the chance of leaks.

Made from high-grade, durable brass, this valve exhibits excellent corrosion resistance suitable for both indoor and outdoor environments. Brass’s well-known strength and longevity ensure the valve withstands frequent operation and continuous exposure to water and other fluids. Its solid build maintains a tight seal over prolonged use, delivering consistent performance in diverse conditions.

This brass valve is an essential component for effective water flow regulation, enabling precise control to fully open, partially throttle, or completely close the flow. Whether employed in household plumbing, irrigation setups, or industrial installations, its design and material promote dependable operation and reduce maintenance requirements. The valve’s versatility and endurance make it a valuable asset for any water control system, ensuring peace of mind and lasting functionality.

PTFE (Polytetrafluoroethylene) tape, commonly known as thread seal or plumber's tape, is a versatile sealing aid widely used in plumbing, piping, and sealing jobs. Its primary purpose is to create a trustworthy, leak-proof barrier between threaded pipe fittings, preventing the escape of liquids or gases. Easy to apply by hand, PTFE tape moulds effortlessly to pipe threads, ideal for tight spaces and complex fittings. Made from high-quality Polytetrafluoroethylene, the tape resists heat, chemical exposure, and high pressure, making it a preferred choice for plumbers, engineers, and maintenance professionals working in demanding environments.
