Has anyone ever fitted the Tornado towel rails? I am struggling to firmly secure the clamp heads that attach to the radiator then fit in the brackets on the wall. Any one else had this problem?

Seen the installation manual and I can't see any problem.
Fit the clamp to radiator and fit sleeve bracket to clamp and offer to wall and mark out where bracket sit on wall, remove rad and remove sleeve bracket and offer back to wall where marked and mark out for drill holes. Fit sleeve bracket to wall. Fit radiator with clamps into sleeve bracket and tighten with screws.
Does the clamp feel loose when tighten? If yes, I use foam double side tape on clamp where it mounted to radiator tube.

Yes have read the installation manual and as you say all seems easy. Yes its the clamp that fits to the radiator that feels loose still even though its tightened all the way up. Have you had this problem too?
Yes, on a few towel radiators similar to this type of clamp before. Double side foam tape is a great solution. 
. It stop radiator from sliding and wobble along clamps.
