This Dine-A-Chook exclusive DIY chicken drinker cup mount forms the foundation of a modular poultry watering system. Designed in-house for maximum flexibility, this fitting allows drinker cups to be positioned exactly where you need them—on wire mesh, timber panels, shed walls, or custom enclosures.
Flexible Mounting for DIY Watering Systems
The integrated clamp system allows the fitting to be mounted through wire mesh using the supplied backing plate. For solid surfaces such as timber or steel panels, the fitting can be installed directly through a drilled hole, with the rear clamp section omitted. This design gives you the freedom to build custom watering layouts without being limited to a single mounting method.
Compatible with Modular Poultry Hydration Components
This drinker cup mount is designed to integrate seamlessly with Dine-A-Chook and Tefen poultry hydration components, making it ideal for both backyard and small-scale commercial setups.
- Start with a 20 L drum or header tank
- Install a ¾" to ¼" BSPT bush into the outlet
- Add a ¼" BSPT to 8 mm barb connector
- Run 8 mm poultry water hose to your drinker locations
- Install a Tefen inline filter to reduce sediment
- Use BSPT tees to branch off to additional drinker cup or nipple mounts
All components push-fit or thread together using basic tools, allowing you to expand or reconfigure your poultry watering system as your setup grows.

Can this be mounted to wire mesh?
Yes. Use both clamp halves to sandwich over wire mesh. You’ll need to cut a 20 mm opening in the mesh to allow the threaded section to pass through cleanly for hose connection on the rear side.
Do I need to use the rear clamp piece?
No. For solid surfaces like wood, steel, or poly, you can mount the main part directly using screws (not included) and omit the clamp section entirely.
What fittings connect to this?
It features a standard ¼" BSPT male thread (13.5 mm OD), compatible with all Tefen ¼" female fittings. Most customers use a female connector or tee, with 8 mm hose as the supply line.
Is this suitable for mains pressure?
This fitting can be safely used in a mains pressure setup, provided it is connected via a Dine-A-Chook Header Tank or Mains Pressure Drinker System. These systems regulate and isolate the water supply, ensuring low-pressure flow into the drinker outlets. Do not connect this fitting directly to a pressurised water source.
