Thread: Plumbing question.

yep try a ag irrigation or milking machine company

Thanks Bussy, I'll try Bunnings tomorrow.

Ian, what type of poly is it ?

You need a 1/2" copper tee (compression or silver soldered style) for the line, with a 1/2" BSP threaded female branch.

Attach a connector (to suite the style of poly you have) with a 1/2" BSP threaded male, into the brach on the copper tee ... Attach poly pipe to other side of connector.

Easy !

Plasson brand makes a poly pipe tee that has ends that will attach direct to 1/2" copper without soldering, and the required 1/2" female BSP thread.

Qs? Ask me.

Thanks Kev, I haven't got the poly yet, it's to run to an extra, new tap at the back of the yard to save dragging 40 metres of hose. Bunnings/Masters are a last but convenient choice, my favourite hardware man doesn't do plumbing.

Ok. You want some blue stripe poly ... To go 40m use 25mm (it only has a 3/4" ID) ... Using a smaller size will work, but you'll get a heafty pressure drop over that distance.

Same copper or poly (blue stripe) tee as mentioned prior, and a 25mm poly x 1/2" male BSP threaded adapter (to screw into the copper/poly tee) .... Plus whatever you need for the other end to do a tap/standpipe.
