What it is

The Ideal 171263 is a long right hand upper front plate, supplied as part of the casing assembly for Ideal Commercial appliances. It forms the upper right section of the outer casing on Viscount GTE and related models, closing off the front of the appliance and shielding the components behind it. Ideal lists the part under the casing assembly type, with alternative number 85558508.

Signs this part needs replacing

  • Cracks, splits or corrosion visible in the plate
  • Distortion or warping so the panel no longer sits flush against the casing
  • Damaged, elongated or missing fixing holes
  • Impact damage picked up during servicing or handling
  • The plate fouling or failing to seat against adjacent casing sections

Before you order

  • Confirm the appliance model and serial number against the compatibility list.
  • Check the existing plate for the alternative number 85558508 to confirm the match.
  • This is not a gas-carrying component, but the casing must be refitted correctly before the appliance is returned to service.
