The water butt extension connector is a practical accessory designed to enhance the efficiency of your water butt or rain barrel. Featuring a BSP male thread on one end and a BSP female thread on the other, this connector offers a convenient 50mm extension, making it simpler to fill watering cans or attach hoses.

Suitable for a 3/4" BSP thread and fitting a 26mm hole, the connector can be easily screwed into existing female threads on your container. If your barrel does not have pre-threaded holes, you can install this by drilling an appropriate hole in your desired location.

Once installed, the extension projects outwards by 50mm, providing ample room to attach hoses or fill containers. This extension improves accessibility to the water stored in your barrel, boosting the overall usability of your rainwater harvesting system. Whether you want to simplify filling watering cans or create an easier outlet for garden hoses, this water butt extension is a valuable upgrade.

The included back nut and washers secure the extension firmly to your water butt. The back nut ensures a tight lock to keep the fitting stable under pressure. Both components are straightforward to install and remove, suitable for temporary or permanent setups. Their robust construction guarantees durability and long-lasting performance even in challenging environments.

The washers help to evenly distribute the load during tightening, which helps to prevent damage or deformation. They also create an effective seal, reducing the risk of leaks and ensuring a watertight connection—an important factor for maintaining system integrity and preventing waste in fluid applications.

The In-Line Soft Touch Valve ¾" BSPM included in this kit is a durable and reliable flow control device, designed to manage water or other fluid systems with precision and ease. Featuring ¾” BSP male threaded inlet and outlet connections, it is versatile and integrates effortlessly into a wide range of plumbing setups. Crafted from strong, corrosion-resistant plastic, the valve is lightweight, making installation and handling simpler compared to metal alternatives.

A key feature is its smooth, soft-touch turn on/off mechanism, allowing effortless operation with a comfortable grip and precise control over water flow. This user-friendly design suits both residential and commercial use, especially where frequent adjustments are needed. The valve’s design also ensures a secure seal when closed, minimising leaks and maintaining the integrity of your plumbing or irrigation system.

Additionally, the valve is designed for easy maintenance. Its durable plastic construction resists corrosion and build-up, lessening the need for frequent cleaning or replacement. This valve strikes a fine balance between durability, usability, and reliability, making it an excellent choice for long-lasting fluid control.

The Tap Connector ¾" BSP female to 4mm micro barb provides a highly effective solution for linking your 3/4" BSP threaded water outlet to micro irrigation tubing. Built with robust materials for outdoor durability, it ensures a secure, leak-proof connection to your in-line valve and a snug fit for your micro tubing. This connector facilitates efficient water distribution to delicate garden plants, flower beds, or vegetable patches.
