The water butt extension connector is a versatile accessory designed to enhance the functionality 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 provides a convenient 50mm outwards extension. This extension allows for easier access to the water stored in your barrel, making it easier to fill watering cans or attach a hose for example. This enhances the overall usability of your rainwater harvesting system. 

The device has a 1/2" BSP thread size which fits a 21mm hole. For installation, the connector can be effortlessly screwed into existing female threads on your container. This is an ideal solution if your water butt already has pre-installed threads. However, if your barrel lacks a pre-existing thread, the connector can still be installed by creating a hole in the desired location. Once installed, the connector extends outward by 50mm, providing ample space for attaching hoses or filling containers. 

The Back Nut and Washers in this kit are used to secure the water butt extension to a water butt. The back nut provides a secure lock, ensuring that the fitting remains in place even under pressure. The Back Nut and Washers combination is easy to install and remove, making it a practical choice for both temporary and permanent setups. The robust construction of these components ensures durability and longevity, even in demanding environments.

The washers in this set play a crucial role in distributing the load evenly across the surface, which helps in preventing any potential damage or deformation that might occur during the tightening process. Additionally, the washer provides an effective seal, minimizing the risk of leaks and ensuring a watertight connection. This feature is particularly important in applications involving fluids, as it helps maintain the integrity of the system and prevents wastage.

The Double Garden Tap is a robust and versatile addition to any outdoor watering system. Constructed from high-quality metal with a nickel plating, this tap is strong and durable. The click-lock quick connector is designed for a secure snap-on fit, ensuring a tight seal that minimizes leaks and enhances the overall reliability of your garden setup.

Featuring a ½” BSP male threaded inlet, this garden tap provides a solid and dependable connection to your water source. The lever handle allows for easy on/off control, providing a smooth operation for regulating water flow. In addition, the click-lock quick connect outlet simplifies the process of attaching and detaching hose pipes and connectors, making it a convenient choice for frequent use.

Equipped with a second BSP threaded outlet that boasts independent valve control, this garden tap offers flexibility and efficiency in managing multiple water lines. Whether you're watering different garden zones or connecting additional equipment, the independent valves allow for precise control of each outlet.

Please note, this kit is not sold with PTFE Tape. Tape will need to be purchased separately.
