  • Polished brass at the watering point: a traditional cross-head bibtap adds accessible flow control to your garden’s 20mm MDPE supply.
  • Wall-mounted connection: the black three-hole backplate holds the tap outlet in place, while the grey compression nut connects to 20mm outside-diameter MDPE pipe.
  • Barbed Outlet takes 15mm hose bore: fit the hose fully over the supplied hosetail and secure it with a suitable hose clip, available separately.
  • Quick Connector for a removable hose: choose the snap-on outlet and add a compatible female hose-end connector; this connector and the hose are not included.
  • One kit, selected outlet: supplied with one wall flange and polished brass tap with your chosen outlet. Pipe, supports, wall fixings and thread-sealing tape are separate.

Description

Water at hand

Fill the watering can beside your pots, or connect a hose for the beds further away. This polished brass wall-tap kit gives a 20mm MDPE supply an accessible outlet with a traditional cross-head handle.

The black backplate fixes to a wall or panel, the grey compression inlet connects the supply pipe, and the brass tap brings a warmer finish to the watering area. Choose the hose outlet before ordering: 15mm barb or snap-on quick connection.

Choose the hose outlet

Both options connect to the same 20mm MDPE supply. The difference is at the tap outlet.

Polished brass wall-tap kit: Barbed Outlet

Barbed Outlet

The supplied 15mm hosetail goes inside the hose. Slide the hose all the way on and secure it with a suitable clip. Choose this when you want a directly attached hose.

Polished brass wall-tap kit: Quick Connector

Quick Connector

A male snap-on outlet accepts a compatible female hose-end connector. Choose this when you want to detach the hose at the tap; the hose-end connector is a separate item.

Make room for the tap and the pipe

Choose a sound mounting surface with space to turn the handle and reach the hose connection.

Position and support

Isolate and depressurise the supply. Fix the three-hole backplate with suitable wall or panel fixings, and support the MDPE pipe separately. Keep the fitting accessible for inspection.

Connect the supply

Use 20mm outside-diameter MDPE pipe, following the pipe and fitting instructions for preparation, support liners, insertion and tightening. The brass tap’s ½-inch BSP male inlet connects to the flange’s ½-inch BSP female socket using the appropriate sealing method.

Finish at the outlet

Fit the hose connection for your selected option. Secure a barbed hose with a suitable clip, or seat a compatible hose-end connector on the snap-on outlet. Restore the supply gradually and inspect the assembled joints before watering.

Choosing the right connection

Is the 20mm pipe connection the same as the 15mm barb?

No. The 20mm inlet is for the outside diameter of MDPE supply pipe. The 15mm barbed outlet is for the internal diameter of the hose fitted over it. The Quick Connector option uses a snap-on hose-end fitting instead of a direct barbed hose connection.

What else do I need to fit this kit?

Allow for suitable MDPE pipe, pipe supports, wall fixings and thread-sealing materials. Add hose and a hose clip for the Barbed Outlet, or hose with a compatible female hose-end connector for Quick Connector. These extras and the watering can shown are not supplied.

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.
