10mm to 8mm reducers - what are options

Hello

I'm having to connect old 8mm copper radiator piping to new 10mm plastic piping. Simple, you might think.  But I'm struggling to find 10mm to 8mm push fit reducers.  I only seem to be able to find brass compression fittings. Any suggestions for types of fitting and possible suppliers please? Thanks.

Thanks for that. Yes, I did try it. But I couldn't find anything that seemed right - most were for air or hydraulic fluid duties. I checked the John Guest Speedfit site, but they don't do anything in 8mm for hot water or central heating systems. They do something in acetal for food & drink applications such as water dispensers.

So it looks like I'll need to go old school with brass compression fittings...:-(
