WBEX34MF-KIT004

This kit contains:

• 1 x Water Butt Extension ¾” BSP (EXTENSION34BSPM-F)

• 2 x Washers (BUTT34BSPM-WASHER)

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 extension, making it easier to fill watering cans or attach a hose.

The device has a 3/4" BSP thread size which fits a 26mm 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. This extension allows for easier access to the water stored in your barrel, enhancing the overall usability of your rainwater harvesting system. Whether you are looking to improve the convenience of filling watering cans or creating a more accessible outlet for a garden hose, the water butt extension connector is an essential upgrade for any rainwater collection setup.

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.

The Garden Lever Tap with a 3/4 BSPM inlet and snap-on male outlet, is a highly functional and durable addition to any garden or outdoor water system. Constructed from zinc-nickel plated material, this tap offers exceptional strength and resistance to corrosion, ensuring longevity and reliable performance in various weather conditions. The robust construction makes it ideal for frequent use, providing gardeners with a reliable water source for all their irrigation needs.

The innovative lever design of this garden tap allows for effortless on/off manoeuvring. With a simple twist of the lever, users can easily control the water flow, making it convenient for quick adjustments while watering plants, washing equipment, or filling containers. This intuitive design reduces the effort required compared to traditional turn-handle taps, making it user-friendly for people of all ages and physical abilities.

One of the standout features of this garden tap is its snap-on male click-lock quick connect outlet. This feature enables fast and secure connection and disconnection of hoses and pipes, streamlining garden tasks and improving efficiency. The quick connect mechanism ensures a tight seal to prevent leaks, while the snap-on design provides ease of use, allowing users to switch between different hoses or accessories with minimal effort. This combination of durability, ease of use, and quick connectivity makes the Garden Lever Tap an essential tool for any garden enthusiast.
