Key or valve to bleed a radiator

YFlyer

Hi there

Would anybody know where I could buy a key to bleed a radiator similar to the one below?

It would be, you won't get one anywhere on a sunday in limerick, B&Q do one but it's too big for that type of radiator (i say this from experience, spend a sunday driving all over town to every hardware shop looking for one with no result), you'll need to go to plumbing suppliers or see if Daly's on William st is open they would do a lot of that kind of stuff.

B&Q/Wicks/Woodies would have that kind of thing. It is a Standard key.

Thanks foinse

I'll have a look in Dalys or some plumbing outfit.

Yeah I don't want to spend the whole Sunday looking for one in the house when the bloody thing may not be there anybody:D

Atlantic homecare had keys on a display, spotted it today... Thought they were a standard size?

A good tip is to get a lump of Blu-Tack and press it over the valve to make an imprint, carefully remove and bring it with you.....
