This kit contains:

• 1 x Water Butt Extension ¾” BSP (EXTENSION34BSPM-F)    
  
• 1 x Nut (BUTT34BSPM-NUT)

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 In Line Soft Touch Valve 3/4" BSPM to Male Black is a versatile and essential component designed for efficient water flow control in various applications. This valve features an inlet with a 3/4" BSP Male connection. The outlet is equipped with a Click-Lock Quick Connector Male, which allows for rapid and secure attachment to compatible hoses and accessories, making it an ideal choice for both residential and commercial water management systems.

Constructed from strong and durable plastic, this valve is built to withstand harsh environmental conditions, ensuring long-lasting performance. Its robust design not only provides durability but also contributes to its lightweight nature, making it easy to handle and install. The black colour adds a sleek and professional appearance, blending seamlessly with other equipment and installations.

One of the key features of the In Line Soft Touch Valve is its smooth turn on/off control, allowing for precise regulation of water flow. This soft-touch mechanism ensures that the valve operates effortlessly, providing users with the ability to easily adjust the water pressure as needed. Whether you are watering your garden, managing irrigation systems, or controlling water supply in a commercial setting, this valve offers a reliable and user-friendly solution for effective water management.
