Wal-Rich Radiator Bleeding Air Valve Key Chrome Plated Lot of 5

Worked as hoped.

Description Hot Water air Valve High quality metal key for operating manual bleeder valves. Far from high quality! Using on cast iron radiators, bent/broke two keys opening the valve to bleed the air. Would not buy again...junk material!

The build it poor since if you use this on a one of the tight bolt, this will just get rounded out. Also, since the head is very tiny of this, your fingers will start to hurt after just few times of use. But the result after using this does help heating since it lets all the air out and the heater will be able to heat the entire heater.

I was amazed to find these. So far so good. These seem to be more sturdy than others I’ve had.

Exactly what I expected. Went to local hardware,and Lowe’s. Neither had at store and don’t normally stock them, The 5 pack was best deal. They get lost here. Nice to have spares. Bleeds the air out of my baseboard radiant heaters like they are supposed to. Shipped to my home in 2 days.as advertised.

If you apply any kind of torque to these, the metal will snap off. The fitting of the key goes extremely close up to the edge which is where the metal split just from turning with my hand.

Great for the money! The days of using a screwdriver to try to open a corroded bleeder valve is over.

I replaced several Tube and Fin baseboard radiator units with enamel coated Runtal steel (3 panel) base units. There are several places to install bleeder valves with type of installation. These compact bleeders can be installed in difficult spots since only enough room for a key or a dime to open and shut the bleeder is needed

I tried these on several radiators and had no issues bleeding the air out. They dont feel like solid metal but I was able to apply a fair amount of torque without any breaking/bending/cracking. Not a terrible deal, I paid about $11.50 for this pack of 5 since a lot of Amazon listings for these things are upwards of $10 each. You can find better bleed keys at the hardware store for cheaper but if you want to save yourself a trip to the hardware store with prime shipping these work fine.

They fit. Good to have spares
