Overview

The Holman Universal Tap Adaptor fits any 20 or 25mm BSP threaded garden tap and turns it into a 12mm snap on connection for a standard hose. It is the plastic brother of the brass universal adaptor, built around the Grip N Lock fitting that holds the hose firmly without leaking. A new tough and durable O ring inside the fitting seals the connection.

The body is UV stabilised so it stands up to years of Australian sun without becoming brittle, and the tough plastic is light on the tap thread. For the price, it is the adaptor you keep on the hose as the everyday tap connection.

Frequently Asked Questions

Which taps does this adaptor fit?

It fits any standard 20 or 25mm BSP threaded garden tap. That covers the two thread sizes found on most Australian homes and properties, so you do not need to measure the tap before ordering. Screw the adaptor onto the tap thread, then clip the hose onto the 12mm snap fitting. The thread is a standard BSP thread, so it mates cleanly with Australian tap outlets and seals without needing extra adapters in most cases.

What is Grip N Lock technology?

Grip N Lock is a snap on fitting design that holds the hose firmly so it does not blow off under water pressure. A separate olive with sharp teeth clamps onto the hose and compresses it behind the barb on the fitting spigot, and together they form a connection that simply will not fail. That makes the fitting more secure than a plain snap on connector, which is the difference you feel when a hose is pulled hard or left connected under pressure.

Is the adaptor UV resistant?

Yes. The body is UV stabilised, which stops the plastic from becoming brittle and cracking under Australian sun. That matters for a fitting that lives on the tap outside all year round and is exposed to full sun during summer.
