20mm Chrome Radiator Extension | 1/2″ Male to Female Valve Rigid Joiner

Features

The 20mm Chrome Radiator Extension is a practical, fixed-length plumbing solution. It simplifies the process of upgrading or replacing home heating units. Specifically, this 20mm rigid extension pipe features a universal 1/2″ BSP male thread at one end and a 1/2″ BSP female thread at the other. It acts as a seamless inline joiner between your radiator and the valve.

Because it is crafted from high-quality solid brass with a polished Chrome Plated (CP) finish, it delivers exceptional durability. It easily withstands high central heating temperatures. By installing these extensions on one or both sides of your radiator, you can easily bridge the gap to a new, smaller radiator size. This fitting offers a clean, professional look.

• 20mm fixed length provides a precise 2cm extension to bridge small gaps between mismatched radiator sizes and pipework centres
• Universal 1/2″ BSP male-to-female connections fit standard central heating radiator valves and inlets
• Features an internal Allen key socket in the end for easy fitting, meaning you won’t need to use harsh metal tools on the polished chrome surface
• Solid brass body construction ensures maximum structural strength and leak prevention under high heating pressures
• Please note: PTFE tape, thread compound, or washers will be required to create a watertight seal around the threads (not included)

Details

Replacing an old radiator with a modern, energy-efficient model often presents a frustrating installation challenge. The new radiator is frequently just slightly narrower than the original, leaving a small, awkward gap to the existing valve. Rerouting rigid copper pipework just to gain a couple of centimeters is costly, messy, and time-consuming. Furthermore, trying to tighten a round, polished fitting with standard plumbing wrenches almost always leaves permanent, ugly scratches across the brand-new chrome finish. A lack of proper thread sealing can also cause slow, destructive water leaks on your flooring.

This 20mm Chrome Radiator Extension solves these frustrations easily. It features an internal Allen key socket for tool-free exterior installation. You can tighten the joint securely from the inside with PTFE tape. This ensures a 100% drip-free installation.

Additionally, its compact 2cm length bridges minor size gaps perfectly. Adding it to one or both sides allows you to keep your existing floor pipework exactly where it is. Therefore, you can complete your heating upgrade with a flush, professional finish. Consequently, you save money on trade fees and avoid tearing up your floors.
