Description

The Polyplumb Hand Tighten Tap Connector links Push Fit pipe to a tap using a hand turned nut. It is made for spots where a spanner cannot reach, which is often the case behind a bath panel or deep under a basin.

Fitting a Polyplumb Hand Tighten Tap Connector

Push the pipe into the socket end first, with a stiffener in plastic pipe. Then offer the nut up to the tap tail and spin it on until it is firm. The nut has a large grip so your fingers can get enough purchase. Check the washer is sitting flat before tightening, because a crooked washer is the usual cause of a drip.

  • Sizes: 15mm x 1/2″, 15mm x 3/4″ and 22mm x 3/4″
  • Straight connector
  • Hand tightened nut with washer
  • Polyplumb Push Fit socket for the pipe

Go by the tap tail size: 1/2″ for most basin and sink taps, 3/4″ for most bath taps. Turn the water on slowly the first time and watch the nut for a minute. If it weeps, a little more turn usually stops it. Other tap connectors are listed under Polyplumb Fittings.

Common Questions

Do hand tighten tap connectors need a spanner?

No, the nut has a big grip, so it tightens by hand where a spanner cannot reach.

Why is my hand tightened connector weeping?

Usually the washer is not seated flat. Undo it, reseat the washer and tighten again.

Which size for a bath tap?

Most bath taps have 3/4″ tails, so use 15mm x 3/4″ or 22mm x 3/4″ to suit the supply pipe. Basin taps are usually 1/2″.
