Description
Overview:
The Self Boring Plumbing-In Kit for Water Pipe is a compact valve and clamp set designed to create a new branch connection on an existing domestic water pipe. Made with a durable metal body and clamp, plus polymer inserts, it bores through the pipe wall as you fit it, so you can connect an appliance or outlet without shutting off the main supply. Supplied by Electruepart as a non-genuine alternative (MPN 908 0590), it is suitable for typical UK home plumbing in kitchens, utility rooms, garages, and outbuildings. The kit includes blue and red inserts to help identify cold and hot lines. Use it to feed appliances such as washing machines or dishwashers, or to add a small tap or filter line with minimal disruption.
Key Features:
- Self-boring valve makes a clean branch connection on an existing line without isolating the whole system
- Non-genuine replacement by Electruepart (MPN 908 0590) for cost-effective maintenance and upgrades
- Robust metal construction with corrosion-resistant finish for long service life
- Blue and red inserts for clear cold/hot identification and tidy installation
- Compact form factor fits under sinks, behind cabinets, and in tight service spaces
- Straightforward to install with common hand tools; no specialist equipment required
- Universal domestic application for typical UK plumbing layouts and materials
- Integrated shut-off function allows you to isolate the new take-off line for servicing
- Helps avoid lengthy water downtime during small plumbing additions or modifications
Typical Applications:
Adding a feed for washing machines, dishwashers, water filters, under-sink taps, coffee machines, or fridge ice-makers. Creating a temporary or permanent take-off for maintenance tasks. Supplying a small garden or garage outlet from an internal cold line. Useful in refurbishments and retrofits where you need to branch from an accessible section of pipe with minimal disruption.
