1 inch radiator valves

[sivoodoo]

Hi all, Im new to the forum and have been looking for some 1 inch radiator valves for months, are they imposible to get or does anyone know where I coulod pick some up, im in Leeds if thats any help.
We have some large old victorian radiators we want to plumb in, but cant find any valves, its a shame because we broke our backs carrying them into the house!
Thanks in advance.
Simon.

I think the best you'll manage will be 3/4 valves and 3/4 x 1" bushes.

I had some machined out of brass for some old column rads in a small local workshop, cost £15, bargain, remember it will be a parallel BSP thread so plenty of sealant will be required.
