Flex-Connection Farm Hydrant

Row of rivets
P&Pd hydrant flexible hydrant stand assembly

The P&Pd Flex-Connection Farm Hydrant has features that make it easy to use, be durable, and cost effective.

with an *accessory feature that prevents accidental spillage and retains a head of liquid.

Features include:

 

  • a flexible connection hose; 

    • that allows local paddock connection, negating the use of an extra bypass leg

    •  with the flexibility to resist damage, or minimise damage, if driven into

    •  with the option of having a fitted spherical marker for added visibility

    •  and a large radius flow path for maximum fluid flow

  • the inlet and outlet up-stands have especially manufactured extra large radius bends for  less restrictive fluid flow and reduced risk of blockage

  • an assembly that is configuration adaptable (number of inlet and outlet legs variable)

  •  *an optional safety valve that guards against spillage during disconnection, retains effluent in the preceding pipework (head pressure) and protects against flooding if the hydrant is left disconnected

  • heavy galvanised corrosion protection

P&Pd Flex-connection Farm Hydrant can be configured differently depending on the number of outlet up-stands added and the bends of each inlet and outlet up-stand can be rotated in the direction of the underground pipes being connected.
