Description
A hose connection from a suitable kitchen tap
This wide rubber kitchen tap connector kit gives a compatible 22-24mm tap outlet a garden quick-connect attachment. Fit the rubber adapter over the outlet, secure its adjustable band, then attach the included hose connector to your hose.
One wide tap adapter and one black/orange hose connector supplied. Hose and tap sold separately.
Check where the adapter will sit
Measure the outside of the tap outlet where the rubber sleeve will grip. This version is listed for a 22-24mm outlet. The rubber sleeve needs a suitable shape and enough straight surface to seat securely; diameter alone cannot establish the fit of every kitchen tap.
The band tightens around the rubber sleeve. It does not screw onto an aerator thread, and it is not a BSP reducer. A broad decorative outlet, pull-out spray head or short tapered spout may not provide a suitable seating area.
Keep the hose supported so its weight does not pull on the adapter. Open the water gradually and check the seating and connection before use.
The hose fitting is included
The black/orange connector fits a compatible ½-inch or ⅝-inch hose. Its rear nut retains the hose over the gripping end, while the female quick-connect socket at the other end clips onto the tap adapter's male nipple.
Use a clean, sound hose end that fits fully onto the gripping section, then secure the retaining nut. The hose's wall thickness and condition matter as well as its nominal bore size.
Turn off the water and release pressure before disconnecting. Keep the supply attended during use and remove the adapter when it is no longer needed.
From tap to hose
Check the fit at both ends before turning on the water.
1. Seat the tap adapter
Place the rubber sleeve over a suitable 22-24mm outlet. Tighten the adjustable band so the sleeve is held securely without forcing the tap or fitting.
2. Attach the hose connector
Pass the hose through the rear nut, seat it fully on the gripping end and secure the nut. Clip the connector onto the adapter's male nipple.
3. Check the connection
Support the hose, open the tap slowly and inspect both joints. If the adapter moves or the joint leaks, turn off the water and check fit and seating before continuing.
Questions about the kitchen tap kit
Will it fit every 22-24mm kitchen tap?
No. The outlet must also have a suitable shape and enough surface for the rubber sleeve and tightening band to sit securely. Measure the seating area itself. Pull-out spray heads, broad decorative outlets and short or tapered spouts may require a different adapter.
Does it screw into the tap's aerator thread?
No. It grips around the outside of a suitable tap outlet using a rubber sleeve and adjustable band. It is not a threaded aerator adapter or a BSP tap connector.
Do I need to buy a separate hose connector?
One black/orange female quick-connect hose fitting is included, suitable for compatible ½-inch or ⅝-inch hose. You will need your own hose. Its condition, wall thickness and outside diameter must also allow the gripping section and nut to fit correctly.
What comes in the kit?
One wide rubber tap adapter with an adjustable tightening band and male quick-connect nipple, plus one black/orange female hose connector. The two fittings can be separated; the main illustration shows them connected. Hose, tap and other accessories are not included.
