3/4" Brass Water Butt Set Complete with Basic Lever Tap

WB12-BRASS-KIT-006+

This kit includes:

• 1 x Water Butt Brass Connector (WB-BR-12BSPF-34BSPM)
• 1 x Roll of PTFE Tape (PTFE)
• 1 x Basic Garden Tap (GTLEVER12ST)

The Water Butt Brass Connector reduces from a 3/4" BSP male thread to a 1/2" BSP female thread, making it a strong and versatile fitting ideal for rainwater harvesting and fluid storage systems. Made from high-quality, durable brass, it is designed to resist various environmental factors and provide lasting performance. This connector enables easy adaptation between different pipe or fitting sizes in your water butt or container configuration.

If your container already has a female thread, the 3/4" BSP male end can be screwed straight in, creating a seamless and secure connection. If no thread is present, the fitting can be installed by drilling a 26mm hole and fixing it in place with the supplied washers and back nut. This method guarantees a tight, leak-resistant seal, maintaining your water system's integrity.

To install, remove the back nut and one washer, insert the connector through the hole so that the remaining washer sits inside the container, then tighten the nut to secure it firmly. The washer acts as an extra barrier against leaks. This straightforward fitting is an essential part for anyone wanting to customise or improve their water storage set-up, combining flexibility with durability.

The basic garden tap offers a practical and dependable solution for your watering needs, featuring a smooth lever control for effortless water flow adjustment. The lever allows you to easily switch between a gentle trickle for delicate plants and a stronger stream for larger watering tasks, making garden maintenance simple and precise.

Equipped with a ½” BSP male threaded inlet, the tap provides a secure connection to your water source. The tight threading ensures minimal risk of leaks, enhancing system efficiency. Note, this is a basic tap without any threads or fittings on the outlet, so it is not suitable for attaching a garden hose or irrigation system and is intended for standalone use.

Durability is a key advantage of this tap, thanks to its zinc nickel-plated finish which offers excellent resistance to corrosion and wear. This robust construction ensures the tap remains reliable and visually appealing despite exposure to outdoor elements. Its combination of strength, simplicity, and weather resistance makes it a valuable tool for any garden.

Included PTFE (Polytetrafluoroethylene) tape, also known as plumber’s or thread seal tape, is a highly versatile product used in plumbing and sealing applications. Its main purpose is to create a reliable, leak-tight seal between threaded pipe joints, preventing fluid or gas leakage. Easy to apply by hand, the tape conforms well to pipe threads, even in confined or complex spaces. Made from high-quality material, it is resistant to heat, chemicals, and high pressure, making it a trusted choice for professionals and DIY users alike.
