Product Information

Full details

The Plumbright Flexible Tap Connector with Isolation Valve is designed for professional plumbers and DIY homeowners looking to simplify basin and sink installations. It offers the key benefit of an integrated isolation valve, allowing you to shut off water flow locally for repairs without turning off the entire house supply; however, it is important to ensure the 300mm length is sufficient for your specific pipe configuration before purchase.

FAQs

Does this connector come with washers?

Yes, it includes the necessary seals for a reliable, leak-free connection.

Can I use this for hot water pipes?

Yes, this connector is rated for standard hot and cold household water supplies.

Do I need any specialized tools to install this?

You will need a set of adjustable wrenches or spanners to tighten the compression nuts.

Is the isolation valve handle included?

The valve is operated using a standard flat-head screwdriver, which provides a low-profile finish.

Can this be used on plastic piping?

It is compatible with 15mm plastic piping, but you must ensure you use the correct pipe insert to maintain the structural integrity of the compression joint.

Troubleshooting

Water leaking at the compression joint

Check that the olive is seated correctly and tighten the nut an additional quarter turn.

Low water flow after installation

Ensure the integrated isolation valve is fully turned to the 'open' position.

Water dripping from the tap connection end

Check that the rubber washer is correctly positioned and that the union nut is tightened sufficiently.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Integrated isolation valve eliminates the need for separate service valves
  • Flexible design simplifies installation in tight, restricted spaces
  • High-quality materials ensure long-term, leak-free performance
  • Compatible with standard household plumbing systems

Cons

  • Fixed 300mm length may be too short for some extended runs
  • Requires proper compression tightening to avoid leaks
  • Not suitable for high-temperature commercial heating systems

Setup, Compatibility & Care

To install, ensure the 15mm copper pipe end is clean and free of burrs. Slide the compression nut and olive onto the pipe, then tighten the connector securely. Avoid over-tightening, as this can damage the internal seal. The tap end requires a standard rubber washer to create a watertight seal against the tap shank. For care, periodically inspect the braided exterior for signs of rust or fraying. Do not use chemical pipe cleaners directly on the connector, as harsh corrosives may compromise the integrity of the flexible hose.
