Where to find plastic buffers for radiator brackets?

Hi,
If you can not track any down, try wrapping electrical insulation tape around the metal bracket on the rad, to prevent metal-to-metal contact. I've had to do this on many occasions.

Hi Dan.

There's a thread on this exact topic on this forum a couple of months back - worth a search? (Try 'brackets' as a possible term)

If you know the make of the rad, try contacting the manufacturer - find them via the web.

But there are other possibilities... but I can't remember them (of course, including Tricky's)

 

best place to get them is a building site ( new houses ) the plumbers have to work so fast that they don't bother with the plastic bits and throw them away, even when they do fit them, the painter will lift the rad off the brackets to paint behind, ( made easy with plastic pipes) the plastic bits come off, and the painter will not bother to put back, so just wonder around pretending to be interested in buying a house and fill your boots.
