Fair enough plumb centre are currently doing a rothenberger kit for reasonable price I bought 1 last week I only changed to mapp gas last year

There's a fair bit of this tube around Bexhill. Most people shave it down and use a compression fitting. I anneal it and use my rothenberger pipe expander to form a socket.

I usually knock seven bells out of them using the box spanner's (Rothenberger) lever. And if all else fails heat it till it's red hot then it should move.

Did I make a good or bad call buying this torch? I did some research and based upon budget and requirements I felt this a reasonable option. Rothenberger Superfile 2

It's something you can measure now yourself, https://www.screwfix.com/p/rothenberger-water-pressure-test-gauge-10bar/53626 This will be useful for future tests too

You can simply buy a set of long reach monobloc sockets. Rothenberger is one brand. Any good plumber has them. Only a few pounds. Basically box spanners

Agreed...

I actually meant cut the horizontal piece that comes out of the boiler, but I guess you could cut there too. Search for "solder mat", Rothenberger do some decent ones.

You don't need to attack the cover with a knife FFS. A pair of grips will pull it off.: http://www.amazon.co.uk/Rothenberger-SO5-2204-Water-Pliers-Pieces/dp/B002NKG522

This is the box spanner you will need. http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/ROTHENBERGER-MONOBLOCK-TAP-SPANNER-BACKNUT-SET-8-0000-/221364595749?pt=UK_DIY_Materials_Plumbing_MJ&hash=item338a5bac25 Andy

hilmor not bad for the price. do prefer record or rothenberger. found some cheaper benders will offset a bend slightley when aligned straight for doing something like an offset. if that makes sense :?

rothenberger rp50 for pressure testing central heating and water pipe work but thats not an air test. Gas pipe work i use a ragin piece of kit when air testing this.

Haven't ever heard anyone say that about Rothenberger torches. In my experience they last about five years, which is pretty good for a tool that's used almost every day

+1 for the Rotty

http://www.transtools.co.uk/store/prod_6923/plumbing-tools/manhole-radiator-and-stopcock-keys/rothenberger-radiator-uni-spanner.html might be not worth buying for a one off job though :shock:

I prefer the Bernzomatic TS7000 to the Rothenbergers. It costs less and it has a smaller snozzle/flame which is good to use in confined areas. http://www.farmhomesupplycenter.com/Trigger-Torch/M/B00008ZA0A.htm

Never heard of bullfinch ,I thought it was bird of some kind stick with the Rothenberger super fire 2 is what i use and there are some special offers on at the merchants free map gas etc

Any Plumbers out there bought this piece of kit???

Does anyone know if you can get spares for the above?

And... Wherever there's a Toolstation, there's a screwfix ;)
