What it is

The Ideal 055260 is an end cap with an RC 1 inch body and a 1/8 inch BSP tapped thread. It blanks off a port on Ideal Commercial Concord Super series appliances, sealing the tapping against system pressure. The cap is listed under the Caradon manufacturing code 55260 and is used across the Concord Super range.

Signs this part needs replacing

  • Weeping or a visible drip at the cap while the system is under pressure
  • Corrosion, scale or pitting around the thread or the hex
  • Thread damage or rounding caused by previous over-tightening
  • Damp staining or mineral deposits on the surrounding casing
  • The cap fails to seal even after the thread has been re-taped

Before you order

  • Confirm the appliance model and serial number against the compatibility list.
  • Check the thread on the old cap: RC 1 inch body, 1/8 inch BSP tapping.
  • Older documentation may list this cap under 1170759, 55260 or 418127.
