High-Quality DZR Brass Garden Tap – M.I.: A Must-Have for Optimal Water Management
The High-Quality DZR Brass Garden Tap – Male Inlet (M.I.) stands as a paragon of reliability and durability in water management. Crafted to meet the stringent demands of Australian plumbing standards, this tap is not only Watermark-certified but also engineered to combat the challenges posed by dezincification, a common issue in regions with corrosive water. Unlike standard brass, DZR (Dezincification-Resistant) brass is specially formulated to resist corrosion, making it an ideal choice for areas like Southern Africa, Australia, parts of the UK, and Europe where water quality can lead to zinc leaching and weakening of brass components.
Dezincification-resistant brass, or lead-free brass, is an alloy designed to prevent zinc erosion, incorporating elements like aluminum or tin to enhance its structural integrity and longevity. This careful formulation ensures that the tap remains robust and leak-free, even in adverse conditions, thus preventing potential water loss and damage, particularly in critical installations like medical taps embedded within walls.
The DZR Brass Garden Tap is available in sizes that cater to various needs: a 15mm (1/2″) inlet with a 20mm (3/4″) outlet and a 20mm (3/4″) inlet with a 25mm (1″) outlet. Designed for outdoor use, it boasts a maximum working temperature of 80°C and a pressure rating of 1300kPa, ensuring its performance in a range of environmental conditions. The tap features male inlet and outlet threads that comply with AS 1722.2, and its construction from DZR brass meets AS/NZS 4020 standards, confirming its suitability for handling potable water. Furthermore, the tap’s flow rate efficiency is demonstrated by its capacity to deliver 43.88 L/Min at 250kPa, thanks to its double O-ring seal which enhances its leak-proof capabilities.
This makes the High-Quality DZR Brass Garden Tap – M.I. an indispensable tool for effective water management, offering unparalleled durability, resistance to corrosion, and compliance with rigorous standards. It’s an investment in the longevity and reliability of your water supply system, ensuring optimal performance and peace of mind in a variety of settings.
