Radiator tails also known as radiator tail pieces or connectors are fittings that connect a radiator to the pipework of a central heating system. They are threaded on one end to screw into the radiators inlet or outlet, and the other end is designed to connect with the radiator valve. These fittings allow for a secure connection between the radiator and the valves that regulate the flow of water in and out of the radiator, which is essential for maintaining the correct operation of the heating system.
Radiator tails are typically included with new radiators, but can be purchased separately if necessary. They are available in a variety of sizes and types to suit the exact radiator and heating system being used.
