The water butt extension connector is a practical and adaptable accessory designed to improve the functionality of your water butt or rain barrel. It features a BSP male thread on one side and a BSP female thread on the other, providing a 50mm extension that facilitates easier filling of watering cans or hose attachment.

Compatible with a 3/4" BSP thread and fitting a 26mm hole, this connector can be easily screwed into pre-existing female threads on your container. If your barrel lacks factory-installed threads, it can still be fitted by drilling a suitable hole where needed.

Once installed, the extension projects outward by 50mm, creating ample space to connect hoses or fill containers comfortably. This enhancement improves access to the water stored in your barrel, making your rainwater harvesting setup more user-friendly.

The included back nut and washers secure the extension firmly to the water butt. The back nut provides a reliable lock to keep the fitting in place even under pressure. Both components are straightforward to fit and remove, suitable for both temporary and permanent installations. Their sturdy construction ensures durability and longevity, even in demanding conditions.

The washers play an important role by distributing the tightening load evenly across the surface, helping to prevent potential damage or deformation during installation. They also provide an effective seal to minimise leaks, maintaining a watertight connection essential for any fluid system and reducing water waste.

The In-Line Soft Touch Valve ¾" BSPM included in this kit is a robust and dependable flow control device, engineered for precise regulation of water or other fluids. Featuring ¾” BSP male threaded inlet and outlet connections, it integrates easily into a wide range of plumbing setups. Made from durable plastic, the valve resists wear and tear and is lightweight, facilitating easier handling and installation compared to metal alternatives.

One of its key features is the smooth soft-touch on/off mechanism, which allows effortless operation, providing a comfortable grip and precise flow control. This design is user-friendly and ideal for residential and commercial applications where fine adjustment is regularly required. The valve’s construction also minimises the risk of leaks by ensuring a secure seal when closed, thereby maintaining the integrity of your plumbing or irrigation system.

Furthermore, this valve is designed with easy maintenance in mind. Its corrosion-resistant plastic construction reduces buildup and the need for frequent cleaning or replacement. It strikes a great balance between durability, ease of use, and reliability, making it a valuable addition to any fluid control system.

The Female Hose Connector with a ¾" BSP female thread is suited to a variety of water and irrigation tasks. A standout feature of this connector is its Click-Lock quick connect system, which enables rapid and hassle-free attaching and detaching of hoses and accessories, saving time during setup and maintenance. The mechanism ensures a tight, secure connection that prevents unintended disconnections.

Constructed from robust, durable plastic, this connector withstands frequent use and harsh environments, ensuring longevity and resistance to wear. It provides a dependable and practical solution for efficient hose connections.
