So I'm installing a hot water steel radiator that is tapped for 1/2 inch bsp I but sold in the US market. It came with an adapter that converts it to conpression to attach the valves which are compression. In the UK, an extension piece is available https://www.toolstation.com/rigid-radiator-valve-extension/p13659#full-desc

But I can't find something similar in the US. It would make my life easier in case the radiator valve would otherwise be aligned over a joist or stud.

The radiator is more or less like this one. https://usa.hudsonreed.com/regent-w...l-cast-iron-style-radiator-11-75-x-23-5-67593

Any ideas on how I could extend the compression fittings to the valve?

Thanks!
