I just bought a Brewtech kettle with the trub dam. Sadly nothing else came with it in the way of fittings.

Does anyone with the SS Brewtech kettles know what the fitting between the tap and the trub dam looks like / is called?

Not clear on what you're asking? There are no fittings in between, the trub dam just pushes into the back of the tap, two little O rings seal it. Have a look at the pictures on the Brewtech website.

Yeah, I've seen the pictures. Thing is I literally own the pot and the trub dam, nothing else.

I can easily buy a 3-Piece ball valve tap but that'll have a 1/2 inch bore on the back of it. The trub dam is (maybe) half that. I'm trying to figure out the piece that gives me a smaller bore for the trub dam to push into.

I did indeed. I'll try messaging SS Brewtech.

Maybe worth trying via the Maltmiller or another UK stockist as they tend to get orders every couple of months and may be able to get one across that way?

I've asked the seller to see if he happens to still have it. SS Brewtech want $10 + P+P. For a single nut.
