Brass Wall Tap, Vintage Wall Mounted Style Tap for Belfast Sink or Bathroom Tap (T46)
Brass Wall Tap, Vintage Wall Mounted Style Tap for Belfast Sink or Bathroom Tap (T46)
This is for a SINGLE wall mounted vintage style brass tap. This 3/4 inch chunky brass tap comes supplied with 3 fitting screws and would look fabulous with any Belfast sink, bathroom basin, or as a kitchen tap. This is also suitable for outdoor use. This would look fabulous alongside the French copper bathroom or kitchen basin sinks on the website or in a campervan or shepherds hut conversion. This has been well made and has a nicely polished finish.
All the taps we sell are rustic in design and do not have aerators so the flow of water is a continuous stream similar to that of an outdoor tap.

❓FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS❓
Can I buy this as a pair?
-Yes, for a pair please see listing Pair of wall taps
If this is unsuitable, can I return it?
-Yes, if this is unsuitable we are happy to accept returns as long as the tap is unfitted and in the original condition. However, as these are made to order, rather than a stock held item, we are only a small business so would appreciate if you could be as sure as you can before ordering and would encourage you to ask for advice if you are unsure in order to keep our costs and losses to a minimum.
These measurements available are not suitable for me, can the tap be made any longer?
-This tap can be ordered as a custom size here
Do you sell any other style of copper and brass taps?
-Yes we do. See the Copper, basins and Taps section of our website shop where you will find 4 or 5 different styles including single and pairs of pillar taps, more wall mounted taps as well as a beautiful mixer tap in copper and brass.
What size is this tap?
-Please see measurements on the photographs in the listing for exact sizes.
Can this be used as a monobloc mixer tap?
-Unfortunately not, this is a single feed tap which can be used as a cold or a hot tap but not both.
What size is the water inlet pipework for this tap?
-All our taps have the standard 15mm water inlet pipework, this is the pipe behind the wall where the water is connected.
Can this tap be fitted directly into a basin or sink?
-No, this tap does not fit into basin or sink pre cast holes. This is designed to fit into a wall. This is fitted by screwing the brass base into the wall using the screws provided. This is not fitted using a back nut.
Is this tap suitable for a bath?
-This tap will be suitable for some baths, although this style is generally sold for basins and sinks as it has a water inlet pipe which is a 15mm diameter. Some baths, particularly in older houses have a water inlet pipe of 22mm. Please check with your plumber or fitter if you are unsure of your pipe size if you are buying for a bath, or message us for advice.
Can this be fitted in a shepherds hut?
-Yes this can be fitted in a shepherds hut, we have sold many of these for camper vans, shepherds huts and horse box conversions. NB. Camper van pipework is usually smaller than standard 15mm so you will need to use a reducing fitting to join this to the inlet pipe. These are readily available at any plumbers or DIY merchant.
Can I use this as an outdoor tap?
-Yes, this tap is suitable for outdoor use.
How do I connect this to my water inlet?
- All our wall mounted taps are fitted by screwing onto the front of the wall, these do not come apart, they are a sold as a complete soldered unit and you will need full access to the pipes behind your wall to fit these as they do not come apart, so please be sure you can fit this to the wall in this way or check with your plumber or ourselves before buying. Your water inlet pipe can be attached to the tail end by soldering, compression fittings or push fit fitments.
Can this tap be fitted as a direct replacement for my existing wall mounted tap?
- Probably not. This tap is made to be fitted from the front on walls where existing access behind is available, this is usually where a house is having a refit or a new build rather than as a direct swap. This is designed and supplied as a complete unit already soldered together, as such it can only be fitted from the front of the wall. This means that to connect your water supply you will need full access to the wall behind where the tap is to be fitted. This unit does not come apart and it cannot be fitted to copper pipe protruding from an existing wall. The water inlet pipe must be connected behind the wall. Please check with your fitter or message for advice before buying if you are unsure.
How often will I need to polish my tap to keep it shiny and what should I use?
- Copper and brass are metals that naturally tarnish over time if left unpolished. A quick buff up every week or 2 will keep it shiny. We use Brasso wadding to keep our taps shiny. This is available at most supermarkets. Rub some wadding over the taps, let it dry for 15 minutes and buff it off with a yellow duster. If you would prefer the more rustic natural brown patina of copper then leave them unpolished and this colour will develop over time.
When will my order arrive?
-All our taps are made to order with a usual dispatch time of 5 working days after purchase. Please contact us via our online form or live chat before buying if your order is urgent as these can also often be sent earlier depending on current demand.
I have another question or I need some more advice about what tap to buy, can you help?
-Yes we can. These are made by Martin, our production partner, who is a gas engineer and plumber. He is more than happy to answer questions regarding tap size, style and fitting. Please message us using the online contact form or live chat.
