Product Information
Full details
The Speedfit Radiator Outlet Plate is an essential component for heating installers and DIY enthusiasts looking to achieve a clean, professional finish by concealing pipework within the wall. Designed for 10mm pipe runs, it provides a secure and neat transition from hidden pipework to radiator valves, though it specifically requires installation with single gang 25mm steel knockout boxes for proper housing.

FAQs
Can I use this with 15mm pipe?
No, this specific outlet plate is engineered exclusively for 10mm pipe systems.
Is the plate compatible with all wall types?
It is designed to be mounted into a 25mm steel KO box, which can be installed in stud walls or chased into masonry walls.
Do I need to buy special inserts for plastic pipe?
Yes, always use the manufacturer-recommended pipe inserts for plastic tubing to ensure a secure, leak-proof connection.
Does this kit include the steel box?

Can this be used for hot and cold water supplies?
This product is specifically designed for central heating systems.
Troubleshooting
Pipe fitting feels loose
Verify that you are using the correct pipe insert for either copper or plastic and that the pipe is pushed fully home into the fitting.
Plate does not sit flush against the wall
Check that the steel KO box is installed level and recessed at the correct depth relative to the finished wall surface.
Pipe movement within the box
Ensure a rubber grommet is installed at the knockout point to provide friction and prevent pipe vibration.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
Installation requires a standard single gang 25mm steel KO box (BS4662). Ensure that you utilize a rubber grommet to protect the pipework from sharp metal edges within the box. When using copper pipe, ensure the pipe ends are deburred correctly to prevent damage to the fitting seals. For plastic pipe, always use the appropriate inserts to maintain structural integrity. The plate requires minimal maintenance; simply wipe clean with a soft, dry cloth to maintain its finish. Avoid using abrasive chemicals which could damage the copper aesthetic.
