Radsnap Pipe Wraps
Radsnap Pipe Wraps are quickโfit decorative pipe covers designed to instantly tidy the appearance
of exposed radiator and plumbing pipework. Simple to install with no tools or painting required,
these wraps conceal unsightly copper or plastic pipes, helping you achieve a neat, professional
finish around radiators, towel rails and exposed central heating runs.
Radsnap Pipe Wraps are designed to deliver a fast, attractive solution for covering exposed heating
and plumbing pipes. Made from durable, heatโresistant plastic (PVC or similar โ check product
specification), each wrap forms a closeโfitting sleeve around standard pipe sizes, instantly
transforming tired, tarnished or painted pipes into a clean, uniform finish.
The cleverly profiled design allows the wrap to be opened and clipped around the pipe in situ, so
there is no need to cut, disconnect or drain the heating system. This makes Radsnap Pipe Wraps ideal
for retroโfits, refurbishments and quick upgrades in occupied homes, rented properties, offices and
commercial spaces.
Available to suit common pipe diameters and in a range of lengths and finishes (check your specific
variant), these wraps can be easily trimmed to size with a fine saw or sharp knife, and joined neatly
at corners, radiator tails and floor penetrations. The smooth surface is simple to wipe clean and
maintain, making these pipe wraps a practical alternative to repeated sanding and reโpainting of bare
copper or steel pipework.
Typical Use Cases
- Covering exposed radiator flow and return pipes in living rooms, bedrooms and hallways.
- Tidying up towel rail pipework in bathrooms and cloakrooms.
- Improving the appearance of visible heating drops in kitchens and dining areas.
- Smartening exposed pipes in rental properties prior to new tenants or inspections.
- Finishing off new radiator installations without boxing in or chasing walls.
Installation & Usage Tips
- Check pipe size: Confirm the outside diameter of the pipe (e.g. 15mm, 22mm) and choose matching Radsnap Pipe Wraps.
- Measure and cut to length: Measure the exposed section and cut wraps to suit using a fine saw or sharp knife; deburr any rough edges.
- Clean the pipe first: Wipe down pipes to remove dust, grease and loose paint before fitting wraps.
- Clip in place: Open the wrap and position it around the pipe, then press until it snaps or clips securely into place (depending on design).
- Allow for movement: Avoid fixing wraps too tightly where pipes may expand/contract with temperature changes.
- Work around fittings: For valves, bends and tees, cut shorter sections and mitre as required for a neat finish.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs)
1. What pipe sizes do Radsnap Pipe Wraps fit?
Radsnap Pipe Wraps are generally available for the most common domestic pipe diameters such as
10mm, 15mm and 22mm. Always measure the outside diameter of your existing pipes and check the
product description to ensure the correct size is selected.
2. Can I fit Radsnap Pipe Wraps without draining the heating system?
Yes. The wraps are designed to clip or wrap around existing pipework, so there is no need to
disconnect or drain the system, provided you have access to the length of pipe you wish to cover.
3. Are Radsnap Pipe Wraps heat resistant?
Radsnap Pipe Wraps are made from heatโresistant plastic suitable for typical domestic radiator and
heating flow temperatures. However, they are not designed for extremely highโtemperature or steam
pipes โ always check the manufacturerโs maximum operating temperature and compare with your system.
4. Can I cut the wraps to go around bends and valves?
Yes. The wraps can be cut into shorter sections and mitred or notched as necessary to fit around
elbows, radiator valves and tees. Take careful measurements and use a fine saw or sharp knife for
a clean, professional finish.
5. Do Radsnap Pipe Wraps provide insulation as well as decoration?
Radsnap Pipe Wraps are primarily decorative and intended to improve the appearance of pipework.
Any insulation effect is minimal. If you need to reduce heat loss or protect against scald risk,
use appropriate pipe insulation products rated for that purpose in addition to, or instead of,
decorative covers.
