Double pipe clips for rad tails - what to buy ?

[HawkEye244]

Hi all, is there a product out there that can clip two 15mm rad tails together but be adjustable as not all rads have tails that are the same distance from the wall? Many thanks

I’ve never clipped rad tails, so not understanding exactly what you mean?

Asked a friend and he said there are double clips which got me confused. How far apart would you have them ? I've got a lot of room to play with between two 600mm joists. He said they looked better when closer together and started to talk about double clips. Think he got confused..

You can use double clips for the pipes, or you can space them as far apart as you want. I think I’m getting confused with what you’re calling tails. I think you mean the pipe tails, I’m referring to the inlet tails. Pipes together usually do look better and you can get a double clip which spaces them out more, or use Talon clips and you can join them together which are slightly more together distance wise.

Drawing here. I get the double clip idea but how would that fit to the skirting ?

You would normally try to bring the pipe up in line with the rad valve connection

As above, you want to bring the pipe up vertically out of the floor so it slots straight up into the valve, no need for clipping above the floor.
