Ideal Hex Head Bolt M16 x 70mm 004709

The Ideal 004709 is an M16 x 70mm hex head bolt in MS, supplied as a threaded fastener for Ideal commercial heating appliances. It sits within the Ideal Commercial spares range and is used to secure mechanical joints and assemblies on the appliance where a bolted fixing is called for. Typical applications include heat exchanger, flue and casing connections that are stripped and rebuilt during servicing or overhaul work.

• Visible corrosion or rust pitting across the bolt head or shank.
• A rounded or chewed hex head that no longer takes a socket cleanly.
• Seized or cross-threaded threads that will not run down or torque correctly.
• A joint that has worked loose, allowing movement or weeping at the bolted connection.
• A missing or sheared bolt found during a service or strip-down.

• Confirm the appliance model and GC number against the compatibility list before ordering.
• Check the thread size and length match the fixing being removed, as adjacent fixings on the same assembly can differ.
• Inspect the mating washers and seals at the joint and renew them if they show damage or flattening.
