radiator extension piece

[mutley racers]

Anyone know of a good make that does not leak. I know it's pretty much a diy fix but the client wants it done this way rather than a drain down. They are behind raditor covers so won't be seen.

So these go into the rad and then the valve tail goes into this is it

Thats it. Simples

I thought I was going to be laughed at posting this thread. I got more replies than expected

those are the one i meant as well the adjustable ones are useless as they cab still move after fitting and any strain on the pipe puts them at an angle

Judging by the amount of views you have probably helped a few others out to!

Toolstation: Rad Valve Extension 20mm

Just seen these on toolstation as I am in a similar situation with an upcoming job. Anyone used them before?

Just bought some today from Williams. Comes in 10, 15, 20, 25 & 30mm lengths. You'll need a 12mm allen key to tighten it up though (or the Rothenberger Uni Spanner for the shorter extensions).

As the rad valves are the large flange type, I suppose you could also consider just swapping them for the 15mm tail type rad valves. Then the larger 15mm tail would be easy to cut if it needs slightly smaller.
The large flange valves could be exended by using chrome female on to the valves tail & a male st. Wouldn't look brilliant though.

I use them. Never had an issue.

Or you can just tighten it up when you tighten the tail.

Have you got an online account, its really hand for doing your quotes as you don't have to ring round merchants. Not sure there's enough room in the booklet

Indeed - only about 1/3 of our product portfolio makes it into the book. If I make the book over 96 pages, it costs a fortune! However, the website has about 90% of the stuff we stock.
