Ideal Adhesive Gasket 15mm x 9mm 171168

This is an Ideal adhesive-backed gasket supplied in a 15mm x 9mm size, listed under Ideal part number 171168. It is a sealing component used on Ideal Commercial appliances, where it forms a tight joint between mating surfaces and prevents leakage of water or combustion products. The self-adhesive backing holds the gasket in position during reassembly, which is useful on vertical or awkward faces where a loose gasket would otherwise slip.

• Visible water tracking, staining or crusting around the joint the gasket seals
• The gasket has hardened, flattened or cracked and no longer springs back when compressed
• Soot or dark staining at the joint, indicating combustion products escaping past the seal
• A persistent smell of flue gases near the appliance casing
• The gasket tears or breaks up on strip-down, so it cannot be reused

• Confirm the appliance model and, where shown, the GC number against the compatibility list before ordering
• Check the old gasket against the 15mm x 9mm size and the alternative number 95086041 to be sure of the match
• Inspect adjacent seals and gaskets on the same joint, as these are often disturbed during the same repair
