Flexible Tap Connector- 15Mm 1/2'' X 900Mm

Flexible Tap Connector- 15Mm 1/2'' X 900Mm

The Flexible Tap Connector (15mm x 1/2" x 900mm) is an extra-long, high-performance plumbing hose designed to provide a secure and versatile connection between rigid pipework and plumbing fixtures. Its exceptional 900mm length makes it the essential solution for challenging installations where standard-length connectors cannot reach, such as high-level cisterns or deep-set bath and basin units.

Key Features and Installation Details
Compliance: Fully WRAS Approved, ensuring all materials used are safe for potable (drinking) water systems and meet high-quality industry standards.

Material: Features a high-quality, non-toxic EPDM rubber inner core protected by a robust Stainless Steel Braid. This construction provides superior flexibility, high pressure resistance, and long-term protection against kinking or bursting.

Configuration: Compression x Female Thread (C x Fi):

Pipe End (15mm Compression): Connects directly to 15mm copper pipe using the included compression nut and olive.

Tap End (1/2" BSP Female): Features a standard threaded nut with an integral washer for a secure connection to tap tails or valves.

Size and Reach: Connects a 15mm copper supply line to a common 1/2" threaded outlet. The 900mm (0.9 meter) length provides significant reach for complex routing.

Function: Used to bridge the gap between supply pipework and taps or valves. The flexible nature of the hose compensates for pipe misalignment and absorbs vibration, reducing stress on the plumbing joints.

Installation Method: Mechanical Connection – Requires no heat. The 15mm end is secured using standard spanners, and the 1/2" threaded end is hand-tightened followed by a final quarter-turn to engage the internal seal.

The Installer's Advantage
The 900mm length is a dedicated "problem-solver" for installers. It eliminates the need for extending rigid pipework into awkward or hard-to-reach spaces, saving significant time and labor. The stainless steel braiding ensures long-term durability even in high-pressure domestic systems, providing a professional finish that standard hoses cannot achieve.
