  • A fixed tap from 20mm MDPE pipe: the wall flange brings your garden water supply to an accessible hose connection, with a cross-head handle to control the flow.
  • Nickel-plated brass bibtap: a silver-finish tap pairs with the black wall flange and grey compression nut; both options have the same 20mm pipe inlet.
  • Barbed Outlet option: fit ½-inch hose directly over the supplied hosetail and secure it with a suitable hose clip, sold separately.
  • Quick Connector option: a nickel-plated snap-on tap adapter accepts a compatible female hose-end connector; the hose-end connector is not included.
  • Plan the installation extras: MDPE pipe, hose, pipe supports, wall fixings and thread-sealing tape are separate; choose them to suit your installation.

Description

Your garden tap

Bring a 20mm MDPE supply to the wall beside your planting beds or watering area. The backplate holds the outlet in place, while the nickel-plated brass cross-head bibtap puts the water control within reach.

Choose a barbed outlet for hose fitted directly to the tap, or the Quick Connector option for a removable snap-on hose connection. The pipe inlet stays the same whichever outlet you select.

How will you connect your hose?

Choose the outlet to suit the hose connection you want to use.

Barbed Outlet kit with 20mm wall flange and nickel-plated cross-head tap

Barbed Outlet

Slide ½-inch hose fully onto the hosetail, then secure it with a suitable clip. This option suits a hose you intend to leave fitted to the tap.

Quick Connector kit with nickel-plated snap-on tap adapter

Quick Connector

The supplied tap adapter provides a male snap-on connection. Attach a compatible female hose-end connector to remove the hose without taking the tap off the wall.

Fit the supply. Finish the hose connection.

Keep the tap accessible and support the pipe independently.

Fix the backplate

Isolate and depressurise the supply. Fix the three-hole plate to a sound wall or panel with suitable fixings. Check clearance for the handle, hose and compression nut before fixing it in place.

Connect the pipe and tap

Use 20mm outside-diameter MDPE pipe. Follow the pipe and fitting instructions for preparation, insertion depth, support liners and tightening. The tap’s ½-inch BSP male inlet screws into the flange’s ½-inch BSP female socket; use the appropriate thread-sealing method.

Complete and check

Fit the selected hose outlet. On the barbed option, cover the hosetail fully with hose and secure it with a clip. For the Quick Connector option, seat a compatible hose-end connector on the snap-on adapter. Restore the supply gradually and inspect every joint before use.

Before you install

Does 20mm mean the garden hose size?

No. It is the outside diameter of the MDPE supply pipe entering the flange. The Barbed Outlet takes ½-inch hose bore; the Quick Connector takes a compatible female snap-on hose-end fitting.

Are pipe, fixings and sealing tape included?

No. You receive one 20mm wall flange and the nickel-plated brass tap with the selected outlet. MDPE pipe, hose, hose-end connectors, hose clips, pipe supports, wall fixings and thread-sealing tape must be obtained separately.

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.
