3/4” Water Butt Brass Set Including Nickel-Plated Brass Barbed Tap

WB12-BRASS-KIT-011+

This kit includes:

• 1 x Water Butt Brass Connector (WB-BR-12BSPF-34BSPM)
• 1 x Roll of PTFE Tape (PTFE)
• 1 x Nickel-Plated Brass Garden Bib Tap (GTBIB12BRASS001N)

The Water Butt Brass Connector features a 3/4" BSP male thread reducing to a 1/2" BSP female thread, providing a strong and adaptable fitting suitable for rainwater harvesting and various fluid storage applications. Crafted from durable, high-quality brass, it is designed to withstand different environmental conditions and deliver long-lasting service. This connector is a practical solution for adapting pipes or fittings of varying sizes within your water butt or container setup.

If your barrel or container already has a female thread, the 3/4" BSP male fitting can be directly screwed in, creating a seamless and secure connection. Where no pre-threaded hole exists, the fitting can be installed by drilling a suitable hole and securing it with the included washers and back nut. This installation method ensures a tight, leak-proof seal, maintaining the integrity of your water storage system.

For installation, create a 26mm hole to fit the 3/4" BSP male thread. Remove the back nut and one washer, insert the connector through the hole with the other washer positioned inside the barrel, then tighten the nut to secure firmly. The washer offers additional leak protection. This easy-to-fit component is essential for anyone wishing to upgrade or customise their water storage solutions, delivering both flexibility and durability.

Combining practical design with user-friendly features, the Garden Bib Tap is a valuable addition to any garden or outdoor area.

PTFE (Polytetrafluoroethylene) tape, commonly known as thread seal or plumber's tape, is a versatile accessory widely used in plumbing and sealing tasks. Its main purpose is to create a reliable, leak-proof seal between threaded fittings to prevent the escape of gases or liquids. Easy to apply by hand, PTFE tape conforms neatly to pipe threads, making it suitable for tight or intricate installations. Made from top-quality Polytetrafluoroethylene, it is resistant to heat, chemicals, and high pressures, making it a trusted choice among plumbers, engineers, and maintenance professionals.
