Chrome 15mm stop end

[knownothing]

Boo hoo! I have mislaid my 15mm stop end which is chrome - the sort that goes on them fandangled chrome towel rails. And I can't find anywhere round here that does them - not the sheds or the Plumb 'Center' or screwfix.

Can anyone help me find one?

You CAN get them in wickes. Thy have better chrome than pipe fittings too.

One of these:

On my towel rail there are 4 sockets - 2 for the feed/return, 1 for the bleed valve and one for the picture above (without the 'nut'). It came with one but I have either lost it (as opened the pack 1 year ago) or wasn't one in there to start with.

As above, sorry.

Sorry I didn't read the 1/2" {now corrected } - so the stop end will fit because the threads are the same. Still say get the right thing cos the chrome is much better.

But I've NEVER seen a towel rail with 1/2" connections. ??

Well I've never seen a new one with other than 1/2" connections. Perhaps you only work on very superior installations down in Surrey?

It must be this cold I've got! Been through and changed everything
Started thinking of the last TR I did , which did have 3/4 connections and told myself they all were.
Modern TR's are all 1/2" I think, the old A shaped ones were bigger.
