Description
John Guest Bent Tap Connector – 15mm x 1/2 BSP
The John Guest Speedfit Bent Tap Connector easily connects to a tap connection with horizontal feeds. The bent tap connector push-fit fitting is used for the connection of plastic or copper pipes to fixtures or appliances with a MBSP connection point (horizontal pipe runs). The tap connector comes complete with brass swivel nut and sealing washer. Simply push the push-fit fitting fully onto the pipe and hand turn onto the thread. To disconnect, push the collet towards the body of the push-fit fitting and pull the pipe to release. The bent tap connector is up to 40% faster to install than traditional methods and is easier to use in confined spaces by removing the need for hot works and tools.
