Bib taps, also known as bibcocks, are essential fixtures in both residential and commercial settings, offering a blend of functionality and design. At DCI Bath Fittings, we provide a diverse range of bib taps to cater to various needs and preferences.​

Understanding Bib Taps

A bib tap is a wall-mounted faucet designed to control water flow efficiently. Its protruding nozzle allows for easy attachment of hoses, making it versatile for indoor and outdoor applications. Commonly found in bathrooms, kitchens, gardens, and utility areas, bib taps are integral to daily water usage. ​

Types of Bib Taps Offered by DCI

    Featuring an extended body, this tap provides additional reach, making it ideal for areas where the water outlet needs to be positioned further from the wall. It's commonly used in bathrooms and kitchens to fill buckets or containers with ease.

  2. Short Body Bib Tap

    With a compact design, the short body bib tap is perfect for spaces with limited room. Its sleek profile doesn't compromise on performance, ensuring efficient water flow in tight spaces.

  3. Angular Bib Tap

    Designed with a 90-degree angle, this tap directs water flow downward, making it suitable for installations where space constraints require a more compact solution. It's often used in utility areas and for connecting appliances.
