Stainless Steel Drum Spigot
A Stainless Spigot for Water and Wine Barrels
What This Product Is
A manual stainless steel spigot in 3/4 inch with a silicone seal, made to fit drums and barrels with a 3/4 inch BSP thread hole. Stainless construction and a silicone seal make it the right choice where the liquid is drinking water or wine rather than industrial chemical.
Key Benefits
- Stainless steel resists weathering and corrosion in outdoor use
- The silicone seal keeps the joint dry between draws
- A lever handle gives fine control over flow rate
- The 3/4 inch BSP thread matches standard drum and barrel tap holes
What Goes Wrong Without It
- Plastic taps are not always acceptable where the contents are consumed
- Weathering and corrosion shorten the life of untreated metal fittings outdoors
- A drum without a tap has to be tipped, which disturbs any sediment in the barrel
Application Scenarios
- Wineries and cider makers dispensing from barrels
- Drinking water storage and camping equipment suppliers
- Outdoor and garden brands that want a metal tap on a barrel

How to Specify and Use It

Rinse through with clean water after use and before long storage
Comparison With Other Products
Against the PP plastic water butt tap in the same size, the stainless spigot costs more and is chosen where a metal fitting is required, including water and wine. The plastic tap is the lighter and cheaper option for general outdoor water storage.
Customisation
Sizes, colours and materials can be adapted where the product allows it, and branding can be applied to closures and cap seals. Confirm the change you need when you send the enquiry.
