1350mm Radiators

[Drumlough]

I have a radiator which I need to replace which has an overall dimension of 1350mm wide. It is around 18 years old. I cannot find a replacement of this width as 1200mm, 1400mm and occasionally 1300mm seem to be standard.

Can anyone advise.

If you can't find one exactly the right size, use a 1300mm replacement with a 25mm tail extension on either side.

maybe look for "Imperial radiators" on google

otherwise as before, adjustments will have to be made

Myson Premiers. Also sold as Center Brand. Sold in most plumbers merchants.
The actual size is 1352mm (53") and are available in 15, 21 and 27" high.

Beat me to it! Myson Premier HE (not the Premier Compact) - in fact I've just ordered one today for such a purpose.

They are made in the original dies used for years!

I visited the Myson factory in Gateshead a few years back and found it very interesting.
The round tops are made with existing 1930's press machinery where the rad is folded and welded and the vents etc are still welded in by hand.
Compacts are made on an automated production line with very few workers. The paint is applied using the same machinery as the Nissan car plant uses to paint cars (an extra high voltage thing where the paint is attracted to the metal.
Round tops are more expensive to make (because of the labour element) but cheaper to buy.
