WANTED Radiator valve............

[squern]

I need the head of a thermostatic radiator valve, but it must be made by Altech.

The various makers ensure that other people's heads don't fit their rad bodies.
Any working condition OK.

I've checked my spare one and it is, I'm sorry to say, Danfoss.

I'll have a word with my brother who is a plumber to see if he has any.

Thanks.
I'm amazed that all the makes use different threads. I have 3 different makes in my house, and an old Drayton in the shed, and none of them seem to fit any other.

I thought plumbing threads were pretty standard.

most seem to be 1" bsp... on all washing machines - amazingly even on the continent.

Is this the one you're after?

The head on mine is different, but as long as the thread matches I'm not fussy.
Our house looks like a Rad valve museum already.
My ones look like this - maybe an older model.

They look just like some of ours (but sadly not the spare ones)
