Didn’t realise these were telescopes until I got them home. I had my doubts about how water tight they would be and was prepared for them to leak. To my surprise they are very goid
these are perfect for intergrating new radiators to original pipework systems
Nice product, Not tested yet but needed a longer reach so as not to have to move the pipework to a narrower radiator. I thought it was going to be something I would need to cut down but no.! the tube slides through the nut... 2 seals inside to stop leaks. yet to see if it works.
Used these with plastic piping and the pressure in the radiator pushes them all the way out and so can’t get them straight unless you cut them. Would be perfect for copper pipe. No leaks so far. 🤞
Excellent piece of kit, easy to fit ,made of good quality material and at a reasonable price. Definitely recommended to other customers.
Excellent item. Only needed 1 so a bit of a waste to have 2.
Great price, great quality and great service from Barrow-in Furness Toolstation.
Very neat adaptor to enable me to install a new radiator that was a little narrower than the original one.
A excellent product you can’t get anywhere else in any supplier a top quality product easier than the normal ones no messing with thred taping
These are a must if fitting new radiators they work well
Had to bye these to make the new valves fit the old radiator
Good seal into radiator, much better than the ones provided with the valves which wouldn’t stop leaking. Added bonus they are adjustable!
Economical way to adapt old radiators, like 65mm to 60mm modern units. These actully slide but this is not mentioned in the description.
Great product when the new radiator is smaller than the old one
Used to make a heating system drain hose coupled with a length of garden hose. Works really well. I did note that the threaded boss is separate from the 15mm tube which seems to seal once tightened. Pressurized to 1.5 bar with no leak. Seems well made.
The radiator tails are not the rigid type as per the description. The longer ones I bought at the same time (part no 80211) are also described as rigid and are exactly that.
These are the telescopic type are are very prone to leaks. I did try fitting them but even when fully tightened, the pipe and valve were loose and could be moved. Had to remove them.
From other reviews, other customers have also been caught out. Toolstation needs to correct the misleading description.
I was wanting rigid tails but these are adjustable. I went ahead and used them and they seem OK for now, but how long will the rubber seal last?
Does exactly what its designed for. Nice little box at a good price.
Many thanks
Great product.. the fully adjustable length made installation really easy
Easy to install, great for the purpose, using a smaller radiator, 1400 as no longer do a 1500, perfect for the use
