I'm looking for a 'Y' or 'X' shaped key with different sockets on each leg to fit drain cocks, central heating pump valves, and sometimes, rad valves or gate valves when the knob/handle is missing. I can't find anything on Screwfix, and the one I bought from B&Q doesn't fit anything (even though it says drain cocks). Please can anyone help?
 
No, I didn't, HarrogateGas. This is one of those grey areas where I wasn't sure where to post. If I posted on "Tools" I'm sure someone would say: "Have you tried Plumbing?" (since it is about a specific plumbing tool).

I elected for "Plumbing" on the supposition that most of the contributors would be plumbers (and therefore have an answer), whereas only a small percentage of the "Tools" contributors would know about plumbing.
