The water butt extension connector is a versatile accessory designed to enhance the functionality of your water butt or rain barrel. Featuring a BSP male thread on one end and a BSP female thread on the other, this connector provides a convenient 50mm outwards extension. This extension allows for easier access to the water stored in your barrel, making it easier to fill watering cans or attach a hose for example. This enhances the overall usability of your rainwater harvesting system.

The device has a 1/2" BSP thread size which fits a 21mm hole. For installation, the connector can be effortlessly screwed into existing female threads on your container. This is an ideal solution if your water butt already has pre-installed threads. However, if your barrel lacks a pre-existing thread, the connector can still be installed by creating a hole in the desired location. Once installed, the connector extends outward by 50mm, providing ample space for attaching hoses or filling containers.

The Back Nut and Washers in this kit are used to secure the water butt extension to a water butt. The back nut provides a secure lock, ensuring that the fitting remains in place even under pressure. The Back Nut and Washers combination is easy to install and remove, making it a practical choice for both temporary and permanent setups. The robust construction of these components ensures durability and longevity, even in demanding environments.

The washers in this set play a crucial role in distributing the load evenly across the surface, which helps in preventing any potential damage or deformation that might occur during the tightening process. Additionally, the washer provides an effective seal, minimizing the risk of leaks and ensuring a watertight connection. This feature is particularly important in applications involving fluids, as it helps maintain the integrity of the system and prevents wastage.

Our 1/2" BSPM Plastic Tap with Quick Connector in modern Grey & White offers a versatile and stylish solution for enhancing your water management. Featuring a Quick-Lock Connector, it allows for easy attachment and detachment of hoses and irrigation systems in seconds, providing a secure, leak-free connection. The durable plastic construction ensures longevity and corrosion resistance, making it ideal for both indoor and outdoor use. Its 1/2" BSPM thread offers compatibility with the water butt fitting, ensuring seamless integration into your existing system.

Designed for efficient water flow control, the tap's smooth-turning handle allows for precise adjustments, accommodating different watering needs with ease. Combining functionality with aesthetic appeal, this tap elevates your gardening experience, providing a reliable and convenient solution for managing your water flow.
