Plumbing tools essentials

First, don't buy cheap. One of the best advice I could possibly get, before spending money on something that will be used or be in contact with water and rust.
 
What's a set of plumbing tools. I use all sorts depends what pipework your going to be working with.
Good pipe cutter
Plastic pipe cutter
Wire wool
Good blow torch
Tight access adjustable spanner
Grips
Loctite 55
Plumbers mate (gas Safe)
Pressure guage (for pressure testing)

I also have various other tools I use for plumbing talks bit use for all sorts of other stuff as well.
 
Second set of grips for when something's seized and you need to apply opposite/steadying force.

Couple of big absorbent rags/towels to keep handy. Don't just assume you can use the nearest nice one if something goes wrong, because it will!

I've accumulated multipacks of fibre washers because they're not reusable so you need one even to inspect a joint.

Radiator key might fall under this category.
