Microbore radiators

[reddog1]

I`ve recently taken off a microbore radiator in my house and it contained a lengyh of plastic pipe which fitted into the inlet side of the isolating valve and i assumed fed the incoming hot water to the far side of the rad. This i imagine helps the flow of the hot water around the rad.
Unfortunately it was very tight and in trying to pull it out it has fallen past the deflector which held it in place and now cannot be retrieved.
Does anyone know of a supplier online where i can get a length ?
I know microbore is well past it`s sell by date and i`m worried suppliers don`t carry accessories for it anymore.
Many thanks in advance

Double entry valve, (both pipes in same end)?

You might be able to use a length of 8mm microbore pipe as a substitute, or you could convert to a valve at either end.

What make is it?

Hi there, yes it is a double entry type valve ( yorkshire fitting )
I was thinking of trying some microbore pipe if i can`t source the real plastic pipe. I will have to get a small piece and see if it is a tight fit in the valve.
Conversion to a valve at each end will be my last resort
Thanks for the advice
