This Wall Flange Kit is designed for professionals and DIYers needing a reliable water supply connection point through a wall for irrigation or general water transfer. Its key benefit is the robust, leak-free connection provided by durable MDPE and Geka fittings, allowing for secure fluid transfer up to 10 bars. A minor caveat is that PTFE tape is not included, which may be necessary for optimal sealing on threaded connections.

MDPE stands for Medium Density Polyethylene. It is a durable, flexible, and chemical-resistant plastic commonly used for water pipes and fittings.
BSP stands for British Standard Pipe. It is a widely used standard for pipe threads, ensuring compatibility between different plumbing components.
Simply push the hose connector firmly into the Geka fitting. The symmetrical claws will engage automatically, creating a secure, leak-free connection. To disconnect, simply pull the connector out.
The kit is designed to withstand up to 10 bars of pressure.
Basic tools for mounting the wall flange may be required depending on your wall type. For connecting the threaded components, standard pipe wrenches might be useful, though hand-tightening with PTFE tape is often sufficient. The Geka fitting requires no tools.
While MDPE is often used for potable water, the specific suitability of this kit for drinking water depends on local regulations and whether all components are certified for potable water use. Consult relevant standards if this is a concern.
A Butterfly Bib Valve is a type of quarter-turn valve that uses a disc (butterfly) to control flow. 'Bib valve' typically refers to a valve used for drawing off water, often with a spout or outlet.
Ensure threads are clean and properly aligned. Apply PTFE tape (not included) to the male threads and retighten. Do not overtighten.
Check that the Geka seal is clean, properly seated, and free from debris. Ensure the claws are not damaged.
Ensure the butterfly valve is fully open. Check for any blockages within the valve or the Geka fitting.
Ensure the wall surface is flat and clean. Use appropriate sealant or gaskets suitable for the wall material to create a watertight barrier.
