I've managed to get hold of a second hand Dalex tap to replace the "picnic" tap that's currently on my Corny.
I'm having a bit of trouble figuring out how the pipework will attach to it.
It looks to me like there is a John Guest fitting coming out of the back of it. The outside diameter of this fitting is 1/2 inch and the inside is about 5/16. It looks like the pipe should go on the inside as there's a little rubber washer in there. If I get 5/16 pipe, how will it stay in there? Am I missing a bit?
What's my best course of action? I'm currently using (I think) 3/8 inch pipe on my out disconnect.
By the way, is plastic pipe measured by the internal or external diameter? Does it come in 8, 10 and 15mm like copper?
To be honest, I'm more of millimeters guy...
