Description
Overview:
The 15mm Compression to 1/2" Female Brass Wallplate Elbow (MPN CWP1512) is a right-angle plumbing fitting used to connect 15 mm copper pipe to a 1/2" Babcock tap. Made from solid, corrosion-resistant brass, it provides a tough and reliable joint where a tap or spout needs a firm wall fixing. The elbow has a 15 mm compression inlet and a 1/2" BSP female outlet thread (approx 21 mm outside diameter), typically used with 1/2" (12.7 mm nominal) tap connections. A two-hole wallplate allows secure mounting to brick, block, or timber. Suitable for domestic, commercial, and site plumbing, it's a practical choice for garden taps, utility sinks, and washdown points where a neat, fixed outlet is required.
Key Features:
- Durable solid brass construction resists corrosion and wear in wet environments
- 15 mm compression inlet for standard UK copper tube; straightforward to assemble with basic hand tools
- 1/2" BSP female outlet (approx 21 mm OD) to accept a matching male tap thread, including Babcock-style taps
- Compact 90° elbow helps keep pipework close to the wall for a tidy installation
- Two-hole wallplate provides a firm, stable fixing to masonry or timber surfaces
- Helps achieve a leak-tight joint when used with appropriate sealing on the male tap thread
- Suitable for indoor and outdoor water supply points, including utility and garden areas
- Reliable choice for tradespeople and DIY users looking for a robust wall-mounted tap connection
Typical Applications:
Wall-mounting a 1/2" (12.7 mm nominal) Babcock or bib tap for garden hoses, utility sinks, garages, wash areas, outbuildings, and site standpipes. Common in new installations and repairs where a 15 mm copper supply transitions to a wall-fixed outlet, providing a strong mount and a neat 90° turn to maintain good flow and reduce stress on pipework.
