What it is

The Ideal 172950 blanking plug is a sealing component from the Ideal Commercial Boiler Spares range, listed under caps, plugs and sockets. It closes off an unused tapping or port on the appliance, keeping the circuit sealed against water loss, gas escape and the ingress of dirt. It is used across the Ideal Commercial Buccaneer GTE and GTE4 appliance family.

Signs this part needs replacing

  • Water weeping or tracking from a capped port on the appliance
  • Corrosion, pitting or a white mineral bloom around the plug head
  • Damp staining or scale deposits on the casing beneath the tapping
  • The plug will not pull up tight, or continues to seep after refitting
  • Damaged or flattened threads that prevent a clean seal

Before you order

  • Confirm the appliance model against the compatibility list, and check the GC number on the data badge where one is shown.
  • Read the number stamped on the existing plug or the appliance parts list; 94950113 and 1179192 both refer to this item.
  • Inspect the sealing face at the port and renew any washer or gasket that is compressed, hardened or perished before fitting the new plug.
