This valve provides reliable flow control to individual radiators and is ideal for both domestic and commercial heating systems.\n\nIts angled configuration makes it suitable for pipework that approaches the radiator from the wall or at a 90-degree angle from the floor, offering a neat and space-efficient solution. The addition of a 1\/2\" nut tail enhances compatibility with a wide range of radiator fittings, making it a flexible choice for many installations.\n\n\u003ch3\u003eBuilt for Everyday Performance\u003c\/h3\u003e\nConstructed from durable and corrosion-resistant materials, this valve is built to withstand regular use and the varying temperatures found in heating systems. The valve body, union nut, and tailpiece are made from chrome-plated brass, giving it a polished finish and robust performance over time.\n\nInside, the valve insert uses brass construction and features EPDM (Ethylene Propylene Diene Monomer) rubber seats, which ensure a tight, leak-free seal. The wheel head and lockshield cap are made from strong ABS plastic, making adjustments easy while maintaining a lightweight build.\n\n\u003ch3\u003eKey Specifications\u003c\/h3\u003e\nPipe Connection Size: 15mm\n\nTail Connection: 1\/2\" nut tail\n\nValve Type: Manual angled wheel head with lockshield cap\n\nMaximum Working Pressure: 10 bar\n\nMaximum Differential Pressure: 1 bar\n\nMinimum Water Temperature: 2°C\n\nMaximum Water Temperature: 100°C\n\nMaximum Ambient Temperature: 50°C\n\nThis combination of materials and specifications ensures reliability, ease of use, and longevity in your central heating system.\n\n\u003ch3\u003eWhy Choose This Valve?\u003c\/h3\u003e\nUniversal Fit: The 1\/2\" nut tail makes it easy to install with a variety of radiator types and pipe setups\n\nNeat Installation: The angled design is ideal for tight corners and radiators connected via wall or floor pipework\n\nDurable Construction: Chrome-plated brass and EPDM components offer resistance to corrosion, wear, and pressure\n\nContract-Grade Quality: A solid everyday choice for installers looking for value and performance\n\nEasy Control: The wheel head allows straightforward manual adjustment of water flow into the radiator\n\n\u003ch3\u003eFrequently Asked Questions\u003c\/h3\u003e \u003ch4\u003eCan this valve be used on any standard radiator?\u003c\/h4\u003e Yes, as long as the radiator has a compatible 15mm pipe connection and 1\/2\" tail fitting, this valve will fit most standard radiator systems. \u003ch4\u003eWhat’s the difference between a wheel head and a thermostatic valve?\u003c\/h4\u003e A wheel head valve offers manual control—you turn it to open or close the flow of hot water. A thermostatic valve (TRV) automatically adjusts based on room temperature, offering more efficient temperature control. \u003ch4\u003eIs this valve suitable for both open-vented and sealed heating systems?\u003c\/h4\u003e Yes, the Evolve Contract range is compatible with most domestic heating systems, including both open-vented and sealed (pressurised) systems, as long as pressure and temperature limits are observed.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cp\u003eCheck out our full range of \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/jjbuildingmaterials.co.uk\/collections\/plumbing-supplies\"\u003eplumbing supplies\u003c\/a\u003e.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eBrowse more \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/jjbuildingmaterials.co.uk\/collections\/valves\"\u003evalves\u003c\/a\u003e available online.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Evolve","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":50802408227158,"sku":"145325","price":3.25,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0905\/4509\/4998\/files\/evolve-15mm-angled-wheel-head-cw-12-nut-tail-2431442.jpg?v=1772662216","url":"https:\/\/jjbuildingmaterials.co.uk\/products\/evolve-15mm-angled-wheel-head-c-w-1-2-nut-tail","provider":"JJ Building Materials","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
