1/2" BSP blanking plug and a rubber o ring from a plumbers merchant.

adamdanshona:
Go to a plumber merchants and you will be able to get brass replacements.At less than £2 for two you can replace the one on the thermostat housing as well! I will post a pic of mine in the morning.You can tighten them up with a proper spanner or socket.

ginge:
A brisk walk to the plumbers merchant in the morning then.

Thanks Tony.

Those plastic things only cost a quid,get what you pay for! The old rangy brass ones dont shap or round off so last for ever,bargain at £3.
