  • Click your hose onto the tap: the male quick-connect outlet accepts a matching female hose connector, making the hose removable without unscrewing the tank fitting. Turn the metal handle to control the supply. The hose and its female connector are separate.
  • Nickel-plated brass bib tap: paired with a brass tank adapter and supplied with a quick-connect outlet fitting. The tap has a traditional metal turn handle and a silver finish. Choose the adapter size for your tank connection, rather than treating the BSP option as a hose-bore measurement.
  • Two tank-side sizes: the ¾-inch BSP option has a ¾-inch male / ½-inch female brass adapter with a ½-inch BSP male-inlet tap. The 1-inch BSP option has a 1-inch male / ¾-inch female adapter with a ¾-inch BSP male-inlet tap. Both provide a male quick-connect hose outlet.
  • One selected kit with PTFE: includes one brass tank adapter with its back nut and two washers, one nickel-plated brass bib tap, the quick-connect outlet fitting and one PTFE tape roll. Tank, hose, female hose connector and drilling tools are not included.
  • Check access and connector fit: allow space to turn the handle, attach the hose and release its connector. Check the tank thread or mounting surface and back-nut access, support the hose and test the completed joints with water before use.

The ¾-inch tank adapter option

Kit WB12-BRASS-KIT-012+ pairs a ¾-inch BSP male / ½-inch BSP female brass adapter with a tap that has a ½-inch BSP male inlet.

A separate chrome-finish outlet connector provides the male quick-connect nipple beneath the tap. A matching female connector on your hose clicks onto this nipple.

Shown here are the actual kit parts: adapter with nut and two washers, tap with quick-connect fitting, and one PTFE roll. The hose-side receiving connector is not supplied.

The 1-inch tank adapter option

Kit WB34-BRASS-KIT-022+ uses a 1-inch BSP male / ¾-inch BSP female brass adapter and a ¾-inch BSP male-inlet tap, supplied as a quick-connect tap assembly.

The brass adapter, mounting nut and two washers, nickel-plated brass tap with its male quick-connect outlet, and PTFE tape are included in this selected kit.

The option name refers to the tank-side thread. It does not specify the internal diameter of your hose; the female connector fitted to the hose must match the outlet nipple.

Check both ends of the connection

The tank uses a BSP thread; the hose uses a quick connector.

Match the tank

Confirm the thread size and gender of an existing outlet. For a new opening, check the tank wall, washer seating and room for the back nut first. BSP thread names are not drilling diameters.

Check the hose fitting

The tap provides the male nipple. Your hose needs a matching female quick connector sized for that hose. Check the connector system before ordering; a bare hose does not slide over this outlet as it would over a barb.

Leave room to disconnect

Allow space around the tap handle and the hose connector’s release collar. Support the hose so its weight does not pull on the tap. Test the mounting seal and threaded joints with water after fitting.

Questions about the quick-connect kits

Is the connector for the hose included?

The kit includes the male quick-connect fitting on the tap outlet. The matching female receiving connector that fits onto your hose is separate. Check that your connector matches the nipple and that its hose connection is the correct size for the hose you use.

Does ¾-inch or 1-inch describe the hose size?

No. These options describe the brass adapter’s male tank-side BSP thread. The ¾-inch option pairs with a ½-inch BSP male-inlet tap; the 1-inch option pairs with a ¾-inch BSP male-inlet tap. Both finish in a male quick-connect outlet, which connects to a matching female hose connector.

Can I disconnect the hose without removing the tap?

Yes. A matching hose connector releases from the male nipple while the tap and brass adapter remain fitted to the tank. Close the tap before disconnecting the hose and allow room to operate the connector’s release collar. Support the hose so it does not strain the tap or tank fitting.

What comes in each kit?

You receive one selected-size brass tank adapter with a back nut and two washers, one nickel-plated brass bib tap with a male quick-connect outlet fitting, and one PTFE tape roll. The tank, hose, female hose connector and drilling tools are separate. Check the mounting access before fitting.

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.
