Talus - Silver Nickel Radiator Wall Stay
Product Information
Main Features:
- Brass Material
- Alternative to standard wall brackets when used with feet.
- Guarantee: 5 Years
- Colour: Silver Nickel
- Finish: Brushed
If you are investing in a column radiator and want a really authentic, vintage look for your home, then wall stays are a great choice. Our wall stays are constructed from solid brass and have a total length of 260mm, but can be cut down to size to suit the depths of 2, 3 and 4 column radiators. They are designed to be used with Column radiator feet to replace standard wall mounting brackets that are provided with the radiator.
While column radiators can be installed with feet alone, its important to remember that column radiators are often very heavy and wall stays help to hold and distribute some of this weight which can help to protect your wall and radiator from damage over time. Secondly, when installed on feet alone, there is nothing to stop the radiator from swaying which can severely damage your pipework – wall stays prevent this swaying and keep the radiator fixed in position, preventing damage and leaks!
For column radiators with less than 20 sections, we recommend using at least 2 wall stays per radiator for symmetry and security. If your column radiator has more than 20 sections then we recommend using a 3rd wall stay.
ColourSilver Nickel is a great alternative for those that like the neutral versatility of chrome but aren’t so keen on the high shine polished finish. A unique colour in that, unlike silver (the metal) it has a slightly golden tinge giving it a beautiful quality feel, similar to that of jewellery. Pair this beauty with our silver nickel TRV’s, pipe covers and bleed valves and blanking plug packs to complete the look of your radiator.
Delta (Δ) Ratings Explained
What is a Delta (Δ) Rating?
When discussing heat outputs, the Delta rating is the difference between the temperature of the water inside the heating system and the desired temperature of the room.
What does the value represent?
In simple terms, this value is about heat loss. Heating a room only works, if the radiator output exceeds the heat loss of the room.
We use this calculation to make it easy to choose a radiator that will have a heat output that exceeds the heat loss of the room when connected to your heating system type.
If you don't know the room heat loss, you can use our calculator to find out.
What Delta Rating should I use?
- Δ50 = Gas boilers before 2005 / Oil boilers before 2007.
- Δ40 = Gas boilers after 2005 / Oil boilers after 2007.
- Δ30 = Low temperature systems e.g heat pumps.
Watts & BTUs (British Thermal Units) Explained
What is a Watt?
Watts are our main unit of energy/power in the UK, commonly associated with lightbulbs and Home Energy performance certificates (EPCs).
What is a BTU?
BTUs are the unit of measurement used to portray a radiators heat output and a rooms heating requirement. 1 Watt is equal to 3.41 BTUs.
Why are they important?
We buy radiators to heat our homes, right? So, we need a way of knowing if a radiator is powerful enough to heat the room that we are shopping for - Watts and BTUs provide us with a value that makes its easier to compare radiators and ultimately choose the right one for our heating requirement.
Need help figuring out how much heat your room needs?
Our fast and easy-to-use BTU calculator can help you:
- Work out a heating requirement value (in BTUs & Watts) for your room
- Show you in-stock radiator recommendations that can fulfil this heat requirement

Good quality. These were a bit long so we needed them cut down.
