Tired of flimsy connections failing? Choose from our four distinct variants to achieve maximum stability and a tidy, clutter-free setup.
Option 1: The UK Standard Tap
This range is specifically tailored for the vast majority of standard UK outdoor taps. It is the ideal choice for creating a reliable connection for everyday watering or for ensuring a tidy setup inside an outside tap box.
Inlet Connection: 3/4" BSP (The common standard household size).
Hose Diameter: 1/2-inch (13mm) PVC (Standard flow rate).
Available Variants:
300mm Short (The Tap Box Fix): Ideal length to fit neatly inside tap boxes; helps prevent kinking. (SKU: RBHO-034300 / EAN: 5065023086054)
600mm Short (The Flexible Standard): Provides enhanced flexibility and reach for tap connections slightly away from the wall. (SKU: RBHO-034600 / EAN: 5065023086061)
Option 2: The Large Tap — Farmers Tap
For those requiring a highly robust connection for larger, high-volume taps, often referred to as "farmers style" or industrial standpipes, this is the correct choice.
Inlet Connection: 7/8" BSP (Designed for larger, specialized tap outlets).
Hose Diameter: 3/4-inch (19mm) PVC (Promotes higher flow rates and superior durability).
Available Variants:
300mm Large (The Standpipe Link): Suitable for secure, close-range links, particularly on standpipes or larger valves. (SKU: RBHO-078300 / EAN: 5065023086078)
600mm Large (The Heavy-Duty Flex): Provides the strongest connection and maximum flow flexibility for agricultural or commercial settings. (SKU: RBHO-078600 / EAN: 5065023086085)
Key Features
Maximum Security: The Solid Brass Union is clamped by a robust Jubilee Wingspade Connector, significantly reducing the likelihood of blow-offs under fluctuating pressure, unlike some quick-release plastic fittings.
Enhanced Seal: The semi-permanent nature of the connection is designed to offer a highly secure seal, helping to minimise drips and connection issues at the tap thread.
Designed for Neatness: The 300mm and 600mm lengths are specifically measured to prevent kinking and maintain tidiness, particularly when installing inside wall-mounted tap boxes.
Universal Outlet: Features a standard Brass Quick-Connect Female Adaptor compatible with all major UK hose brands.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)
Q: How do I know which tap connection size I need (3/4" vs 7/8")? The vast majority of standard UK domestic garden taps use the 3/4" BSP thread. If you are buying for a normal home garden, this is likely the size you need. The larger 7/8" BSP size is generally reserved for older, heavy-duty, or "farmers-style" industrial taps found in agricultural settings or allotments.
Q: What is the difference in hose diameter between the two options? We match the hose thickness to the application:
Standard Option (3/4" Inlet): Uses a standard 1/2-inch (13mm) diameter hose, perfect for normal garden water pressure.
Large Option (7/8" Inlet): Uses a thicker 3/4-inch (19mm) diameter hose to handle the higher flow rates often required by industrial or farm taps.
Q: Is this hose difficult to install? Do I need tools? Installation is designed to be quick and tool-free. Simply screw the brass union onto your tap by hand, then hand-tighten the butterfly wing nut to secure the hose in place. Finally, "click" your main hose or accessory into the brass quick-connect outlet.
Q: Will the 300mm length fit inside a standard outside tap box? Yes. The 300mm variants are specifically designed to loop neatly inside standard wall-mounted tap boxes (such as those from Arrow Valves or generic plastic boxes). This length helps prevent the hose from kinking or bunching up, allowing the lid to close easily.
Q: Is the outlet compatible with my existing hose reel? Yes. All variants come fitted with a Standard Brass Quick-Connect Female. This is universally compatible with standard male "click" fittings found on all major hose brands (like Hozelock, Gardena, and Karcher), allowing you to attach your main hose reel instantly.
Q: Can I leave this hose attached to the tap permanently? The design is intended as a semi-permanent connection. While it is easy to remove if needed, the secure brass fitting allows it to remain attached to your tap through out the year without the common issue of plastic fittings popping off. It is good practice to disconnect hoses that are not in use to prevent backflow of dirty/foul water
