What it is

The Ideal 172230 is a 1 inch flange with tapping, supplied by Ideal for its Commercial Concord range of appliances. It is the bolted connection component that joins pipework to the appliance, with a tapped opening formed in the flange body. The part is listed under Ideal's commercial spares and carries the alternative number 1178613.

Flanges of this type sit at a fixed joint on the appliance and are removed whenever the connected pipework or the joint itself is disturbed. Because the sealing face and the tapped thread both take wear over time, the flange is a serviceable item rather than a permanent fitting.

Signs this part needs replacing

  • Weeping or dripping at the flange joint when the appliance is running or up to temperature
  • Rust staining, corrosion or discolouration around the flange face, studs or adjacent pipework
  • Gradual loss of system pressure traced back to the joint rather than to the appliance body
  • Scale, pitting or a scored sealing face visible once the flange is removed
  • Difficulty pulling the joint up tight on reassembly, or a joint that will not hold a seal

Before you order

  • Confirm the appliance model and serial number against the compatibility list before ordering, as the Concord range uses several similar flanges
  • Inspect the existing flange and its sealing face on removal, and check whether a gasket or seal is needed to complete the joint
  • Quote part number 172230, or the alternative number 1178613, when checking stock with a supplier
