Post photo, a lot of old bleed screws on old radiators are brass,so easy to round off, & difficult to remove then.
thank you .our rads have a 6 sided nut sticking out and a 4 sided inner where the rad key goes on .of the six rads we have only 1 that goes in nice and turns .
thank you .i dont think the part in the picture will go in the round hole ,as the thread looks to big.
Post a photo. The thread will be 1/2 BSP on the radiator, same as Bleed Valve Air Vent above. If iron radiator then it might be a larger odd ball BSP thread.
Post a photo. There numerous number of bleed screws available,long,short,etc, some will only fit one brand of radiator. https://www.bleedscrews.co.uk/radiator-types/

Hammer a small socket on.. Done 2 like that and it works.. Soft brass just moulds to socket.. nothing to loose..
No.. I took a rad off as requested. Then I was told the bung was stuck and been like it for years.. Dam.. Done my nut... I heated and tried long nose pliers but nothing would shift it.. They were blaming me and said I should sort. So I thought cit or bust and hammered a tiny socket on. Instantly it became loose.. Think my spelling is off.. Loose or lose..nothing to lose I ment.. Cit or bust.whack it
