Ideal Nipple 1 1/4 x 1390 100960

The Ideal nipple (part number 100960) is a spare pipe fitting designed for Ideal Commercial heating appliances. It is a 1 1/4 x 1390 nipple, which serves as a threaded connector between pipe sections or components within the appliance's water circuit. The nipple's threaded ends allow it to be screwed into two female fittings, creating a secure, leak-free connection. This part is compatible with several Ideal Commercial Concord Super Series 4 models, both horizontal and vertical configurations. As a spare part, it allows engineers to replace a worn or damaged nipple without replacing the entire assembly. The nipple is a consumable item that may need replacement during routine maintenance or repair.

• Visible corrosion, rust, or pitting on the nipple surface, which can weaken the fitting and lead to leaks.
• Leaks or weeping at the threaded connections, often indicated by water marks or mineral deposits.
• Cracks, deformation, or thread damage preventing a proper seal, making it difficult to tighten the joint.
• Unexplained pressure loss or water pooling around the fitting, suggesting a hidden leak.
• Difficulty achieving a tight, leak-free joint when reassembling, which may indicate worn threads.

• Check your appliance model and serial number against the compatibility list to confirm fitment, as this nipple is only suitable for the listed Ideal Commercial models.
• Verify the existing part number or dimensions match 100960 (1 1/4 x 1390) before ordering.
• Inspect mating threads and seals; a suitable thread sealant or gasket may be required for installation.
