Description

This nickel-plated brass bib tap pairs a ¾-inch BSP male supply inlet with a ribbed tail for ¾-inch / nominal 19mm-bore hose. Turn the T-bar handle to control water at the tap.
¾-inch BSP male inlet · tail for nominal 19mm-bore hose · turn-handle control
One tap with hose tail supplied. Hose, retaining clip and mounting fittings are separate.
Check the ¾-inch BSP supply connection
The ¾-inch BSP male thread is the tap's connection to the water supply. It needs a matching female BSP fitting and the sealing arrangement required by that connection.
Do not choose the supply fitting by measuring ¾-inch across the outside of the thread. BSP sizes are nominal designations, so the thread's measured outside diameter is different from its name.
Check the position of the supply fitting as well as its thread. Allow room to turn the T-bar handle and enough clearance beneath the outlet for the hose to leave without a sharp bend.
A direct hose connection for 19mm internal bore
The outlet is intended for ¾-inch hose, commonly described as nominal 19mm internal bore. The hose wall sits over the ribs; a suitable retaining clip is separate.
This connection works differently from a garden quick connector. There is no click-fit male plug for a female quick connector to latch onto, and small micro-irrigation tube does not fit directly over this tail.
Check that the hose seats properly and select a clip suitable for its outside diameter once fitted. Keep the hose supported so its weight or a pull on the line does not strain the tap connection.
Prepare the supply and hose before fitting
Check the thread match, hose condition and retaining clip before restoring the water.
Isolate and connect
Turn off the supply. Support the matching female fitting while installing the tap and use the sealing method required for that connection. Avoid overtightening.
Seat and retain the hose
Use sound, compatible ¾-inch hose. Fit it onto the tail and secure it with an appropriate retaining clip, following the hose and clip instructions.
Open and inspect
Restore the supply gradually and inspect the inlet and hose joint. Release pressure before disconnecting. Isolate and drain exposed outdoor fittings before freezing weather.
Before ordering the ¾-inch bib tap
What size hose does the tail take?
It is specified for ¾-inch hose, commonly sold as nominal 19mm internal bore. Check the hose's internal size and condition; its outside diameter also matters when selecting a retaining clip.
Does a garden quick connector click onto it?
No. The supplied outlet is a ribbed hose tail for hose to fit over, rather than a male garden quick-connect plug. Choose the appropriate connection type for the way you want to attach your hose.
Is the body brass or stainless steel?
The body is brass with a nickel-plated finish. The silver-coloured exterior is the plated finish, rather than a stainless-steel body.
What comes with one tap?
One nickel-plated brass tap with its T-bar handle and hose tail. Hose, retaining clip, wall plate, supply adapters and sealing materials are not included.

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.
