Hello,
My hot waterboiler failed in our house we just moved out of...
Before I could heat the place up 3 of my radiators froze.
They didn't crack, but seperated at the end sections and the threaded (sacrificial?)rod broke in the middle tapered area. Is anyone familiar with radiators such as these and can anyone direct me to a resource for parts (rod/nipple?)for these radiators and to find out if they are in fact salvagable.
Thanks,
jd.

    if your sure the sections are not cracked, clean the nipples and put in a piece of threaded rod, and pressure test them with air. At this point you have nothing to lose! Good Luck!
