Solder Ring Straight Tap Connector – 15mm x 1/2″ is a high-quality plumbing fitting designed to connect 15 mm copper pipe directly to a 1/2″ BSP (British Standard Pipe) threaded tap or outlet. It features a copper socket with an integral solder ring on one end, and a precision-machined male or female BSP thread on the other—commonly used for kitchen or bathroom tap connections, as well as washing machines, garden taps, and appliances.

The solder ring (also known as a Yorkshire fitting) contains pre-applied solder inside the copper end. When heat is applied with a blowtorch, the solder melts and creates a strong, watertight seal between the fitting and the pipe—no separate solder is needed. This allows for a faster, cleaner, and more consistent installation, especially in tight or awkward spaces.
