Non Standard Radiator Key

Dec 08, 2003 1 Replies

I have older radiators, which have a small square faced lug (Smaller than the usual square lug on modern radiators) at the back of the radiator. I've been told that this key looks more like a small spanner with a four sided hole in it.



Does anyone know where I can purchase a key for this type of radiator?



Many Thanks


Well, this *is* a D-I-Y group! Measure the size of the square lug, get a strip of metal, drill a hole whose diameter is the same as the width of the lug, and file it out square with a needle file. Voila!
