What it is

The Ideal 153440 is an M8 x 700mm assembly rod supplied for six-section Ideal Commercial boilers. It is a threaded rod that draws the boiler sections together and holds them under tension so the section joints stay tight. The rod forms part of the section assembly on Falcon GTE and GTE4 appliances.

Signs this part needs replacing

  • Visible corrosion, pitting or heavy scaling along the length of the rod
  • Rod bent, stretched or with flattened or damaged threads
  • Weeping or staining at the boiler section joints
  • Sections that will not pull up square or hold alignment during reassembly
  • A rod that will not take torque cleanly when the assembly is tightened down

Before you order

  • Confirm the boiler model and the number of sections in the assembly; this rod is specified for six-section builds.
  • Cross-check the number on the appliance or its documentation against the alternative and previous numbers listed below.
  • Check how many rods the assembly requires before ordering.
