Check the reach
Part of the inlet enters the female fitting. An adapter can move the tap further out, so 190mm is not a guaranteed distance from the tank wall to the spout.
Description
An angled outlet for stored water
This 190mm polypropylene tap brings the spout forward from its inlet, then turns it down at 45° for filling a watering can or connecting suitable hose.
Choose it for a matching ¾-inch BSP female connection. The blue lever controls the water at the tank; check the fitting and space around it before ordering.
One tap supplied. Tank adapter, hose, clips and sealing materials are separate.

Check both ends of the tap
At the supply end, the ¾-inch BSP male thread needs a matching female fitting. An IBC’s original outlet can use a different connection, so check any adapter already fitted rather than assuming the tap will screw straight on.
At the dispensing end, the ridged tail fits inside suitable flexible hose. Match the hose bore to the tail and use an appropriate securing clip. The inlet’s BSP size and the hose’s bore describe different connections.
You can also dispense directly into a watering can or bucket. Check the outlet height and position leave space for the container you use.
Allow space for the spout and handle
The 190mm tap length helps you plan the installation; the final position depends on the fitting.
Leave the lever clear
Allow the handle to move freely without hitting the container or nearby fittings. Avoid leaving a hose pulling or twisting against the plastic tap.
Position the outlet
Check where the downward tail will sit relative to your watering can or hose. The 45° model has a shallower turn than a 90° outlet.
Fitting and first use
Isolate the supply or empty the container below the outlet before replacing a tap. Confirm the mating thread and use sealing materials appropriate to that joint.
Fit without overtightening the plastic body. Introduce water gradually and inspect the inlet and any hose connection before leaving the tank filled. Close the lever after dispensing, and drain exposed fittings before freezing weather.
Questions about the ¾-inch angled tap
Is this tap 170mm or 190mm long?
This ¾-inch BSP model is 190mm long. Check the specification of the exact inlet version you are buying; different versions in the range do not all have the same tap length.
Does the outlet take ¾-inch hose?
The ¾-inch BSP designation identifies the threaded inlet, not the hose tail. Confirm the hose’s internal bore fits the separate ridged outlet before choosing hose or clips.
Will it fit an IBC without an adapter?
Only if the existing fitting provides a matching ¾-inch BSP female connection. Check the IBC outlet and any adapter fitted to it; an appropriate separate adapter may be required.
What is included with the tap?
One grey PP lever tap is supplied. Tank adapter, bulkhead fitting, hose, clips and thread-sealing materials are separate. This listing does not include a roll of PTFE tape.

What is BSP?
What is BSP thread size?
BSP (British Standard Pipe) is a nominal pipe-thread size, not a direct measurement of a fitting’s bore or outside diameter. For example, a ½-inch BSP male thread measures about 21mm across its outer thread crests.
These figures are approximate outside diameters of male BSP threads, to help identify the nominal size. They are not inch-to-millimetre unit conversions:
- 3/8" BSP → 16.66 mm
- 1/2" BSP → 20.95 mm
- 3/4" BSP → 26.44 mm
- 1" BSP → 33.25 mm
- 1.25" BSP → 41.91 mm
- 1.5" BSP → 47.80 mm
- 2" BSP → 59.61 mm
- 3" BSP → 87.88 mm
- 4" BSP → 113.03 mm
All our BSP threads are parallel (BSPP, to ISO 228), not tapered.
Measure across the outside of a male thread, then check its pitch and whether it is parallel or tapered. Diameter alone does not confirm compatibility. Check the product’s stated thread specification before connecting.
