Description
A dial tap for your garden water supply
Connect a plastic bib tap to your water butt using the included brass tank adapter. The dial operates the tap, and the quick-connect outlet takes a suitable hose-end connector.
Choose Black & Orange or Grey & White, then match the adapter’s external BSP thread to your tank connection. Each kit includes the tap, adapter, nut, two sealing washers and a PTFE tape roll.
One selected kit supplied. Water butt, hose and female hose-end connector are not included.
Choose the finish. Check the connection.
Black & Orange combines a black tap body and orange dial. Grey & White has a grey body and white dial. Both styles pair a plastic tap with a brass adapter and include PTFE tape.
The outlet is a quick-connect plug. It needs a matching female hose-end connector on your hose; it is not a ribbed barb for bare hose. Check the connector profile and suitability of the parts you already use.
The photograph shows the smaller Grey & White kit. Select the adapter size separately from the colour; the larger kit has a different tank thread and matching tap inlet.
Match the adapter to the tank
Adapter Size describes the external tank-side thread. It does not describe the quick-connect hose plug.
| Connection | ¾-inch option | 1-inch option |
|---|---|---|
| Adapter external thread | ¾-inch BSP male | 1-inch BSP male |
| Adapter internal thread | ½-inch BSP female | ¾-inch BSP female |
| Tap inlet thread | ½-inch BSP male | ¾-inch BSP male |
| Hose outlet | Quick-connect plug | Quick-connect plug |
A suitable existing female BSP connection may take the matching adapter. For a new opening, confirm the container wall, sealing surface, thread length and nut access against the actual fitting before drilling. A nominal BSP size is not a mounting-hole diameter.
What comes in one kit?
The selected tap and adapter, with the parts needed for their mounting and threaded connection.
Brass adapter
One adapter with one retaining nut and two sealing washers. Check the mounting surface and access inside the water butt before choosing the outlet position.
Plastic dial tap
One tap in your chosen colour with its quick-connect outlet. Leave room to turn the dial and attach or release the matching hose-end connector.
PTFE tape
One roll for the appropriate threaded joint. Tape does not replace the mounting washers. Check the adapter, tap and hose connection with water after fitting.
Questions about the plastic bib tap kit
Are both colours included?
No. One kit in the selected colour and adapter size is supplied. Choose Black & Orange or Grey & White, and then choose the ¾-inch or 1-inch adapter option.
Can I push bare hose onto the outlet?
No. The supplied outlet is a quick-connect plug, not a hosetail barb. Use a suitable female hose-end connector and check its fit. The hose and female connector are not included in the kit.
Does the 1-inch option need a 1-inch hose?
The 1-inch label refers to the adapter’s external BSP tank thread. That option has a ¾-inch BSP tap inlet and a quick-connect hose outlet. Choose the hose and its female connector for the outlet arrangement, rather than using the adapter label as the hose size.
Can the adapter be fitted through a new tank opening?
The adapter includes a nut and two washers for a suitable container mounting. Check the wall, sealing surface, available thread length and access before cutting. Measure the actual fitting and test the finished installation with water; the BSP option label is not a drill size.

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.
