What centers for a 600mm towel rail?

[Millsy 82]

Does anybody know what centers I have to have for 1st fixing a 600mm curved towel rail? I seem to have 570mm in my mind for some reason.

565. for most of em.

what i meant was its 35mm less than whatever the width is. which in this case is 565 for a 600mm wide

I find it's usually 565mm butsome can be 5-10 mm different either way, which can make the pipework look a bag of bollx if your coming horizontally out of a stud wall! I usually get the customer to get the rad in when I start first fix or tell them it may look crap if not!

Looking at Myson Avonmore rad and it's 558.
Can you get the spec from the net?
Or do your 1st fix with a bit of play in it.

Without right measurements it's a guessing game.

I thought that and tried to get measurements but gave up. The floor isn't being tiled so I told him I alter the pipes when they come.

Normally 550-565 depending on the make, I normally make sure I know exactly what is being fitted before I first fix so I can look up the technical data on it.
