What it is

The Ideal 171196 is a 1475mm long rail, supplied as part of the casing assembly for Ideal Commercial appliances. It forms part of the outer casing framework, holding the panels in line and keeping the boiler's casing rigid and correctly spaced around the heat exchanger and internal components. It is manufactured by Ideal for their commercial range.

Signs this part needs replacing

  • Casing panels sitting out of line or failing to sit flush against the appliance frame
  • Visible corrosion, pitting or rust along the length of the rail
  • Bending, kinking or distortion of the rail, often found after the casing has been removed and refitted
  • Casing rattling or vibrating in use because the rail no longer holds the panels firmly
  • Difficulty refitting casing panels because the mounting points on the rail have deteriorated

Before you order

  • Check the appliance model and GC number against the compatibility list below before ordering, as the same casing design is used across several Viscount GTE and Nuway variants
  • Confirm the number on the existing rail or the appliance documentation matches 171196 or 85558010
