1” Brass Water Butt Set Including Nickel-Plated Barbed Tap

WB34-BRASS-KIT-021+

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 Nickel-Plated Brass Garden Bib Tap (GTBIB34BRASS001N)

The 1" BSP Male to 3/4" BSP Female brass outlet is a durable and adaptable fitting designed for rainwater collection and various fluid storage systems. Made from premium quality brass, it is built to withstand diverse environmental conditions and ensure long-lasting performance. This fitting is engineered to reduce from a 1” BSP male thread to a 3/4” BSP female thread, providing a practical solution to connect 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, offering a seamless and secure joint. If no thread exists, the fitting can be installed by drilling a hole and securing it using the supplied washers and back nut. This method guarantees a tight and reliable seal, preventing leaks and maintaining the integrity of your water storage system.

To mount the fitting directly onto a container, drill a 33mm hole to suit the 1" BSP male thread. After removing the back nut and one washer, insert the connector through the hole so that the remaining washer sits inside the barrel. Tighten the nut to secure the fitting firmly. The washer provides extra protection against leaks. This straightforward installation makes the fitting an essential component for anyone wanting to customise or upgrade their water storage solutions, combining ease of use with durability.

The Nickel-Plated Brass Garden Bib Tap with 3/4" BSP male thread is a high-quality, robust fitting designed for garden water systems. Crafted from tough, nickel-plated brass, it offers excellent resistance to corrosion and wear, ensuring a long-lasting service life even when exposed to harsh outdoor conditions. The nickel plating not only improves durability but also adds a polished, attractive finish.

The precisely designed barbed outlet ensures a secure and leak-proof connection by gripping firmly inside the pipe. This feature eliminates the need for additional clamps or fasteners, simplifying installation while preventing slippage and ensuring reliable water flow.

Equipped with a convenient turn handle, the Garden Bib Tap allows for easy on/off operation and quick water flow control. Whether watering plants, filling ponds, or washing vehicles, this tap provides a dependable and efficient solution. Its combination of sturdy construction, secure connection, and user-friendly design makes it an indispensable tool for gardeners and outdoor enthusiasts alike.

PTFE (Polytetrafluoroethylene) tape, also known as thread seal or plumber's tape, is a versatile and widely used tool in plumbing and piping. Its primary role is to create a reliable, leak-free seal between threaded pipe fittings, preventing the escape of gases or liquids. Easy to apply by hand, PTFE tape moulds perfectly to pipe threads, making it ideal for tight or complex fittings. Made from high-quality Polytetrafluoroethylene, the tape resists heat, chemicals, and high pressure, making it suitable for demanding environments and a favourite choice for plumbers, engineers, and maintenance professionals.
