Do I need pipe inserts when using 10mm plastic pipe?
Looking to use these on 15mm lock shield valves on some radiators with 10mm plastic pipe. It looks like I do not need the 10mm olive, but do I still need to use the pipe insert?

Hello SouthWestDIYer,
Yes, we would always recommend using the plastic pipe inserts when using compression fittings as this will prevent the pipe from deforming.

What make is this / How long is it?
I'm aware that different manufacturers make version in different lengths!
So which is it?
