Hello,

Can I connect these two identical radiators using the double nipple?

Shouldn't the manufacturer be able to tell you that?

It is clear that the double nipple fits. My concern is about the functionality. Does the hot water flow from one to the next continuously?

The connector you showed won’t work because the thread on the other side will unscrew when you tighten it.

Thanks for the tip. I’ll need to ask more details at the hardware store.

You need a flat-sealing screw connection; that will work.

And it will function properly.
