Radiator top and bottom hose size

Post by bloodysalmon » Wed Nov 20, 2019 2:51 am

Hi, I wondered if anyone can please confirm what the size of top and bottom brass pipes are fitted to the radiator? Not the rubber but the brass external pipe sizes. Often these get replaced, damaged etc so wanted to make sure a radiator refit will be correctly assembled. thank you Chris :thumbs:

Chris -
Top hose inlet pipe is 2.1875" (2-3/16); bottom outlet hose pipe is 1.125" (1-1/8).

I've got 4 radiators on the shelf - 2 rebuilt for TC0279 & TC2040, 2 spares that need to go to good homes.

The cost of shipping heavy weighted parts across the water is prohibitive, so the offer from Tom as kind as it was isn't going happen ... unless he gave me them!
So, is there anyone in the UK, or perhaps Europe that has 1 or 2 radiators for sale please? Chris
