What it is
The Ideal 173376 is a complete tie rod assembly for a six section boiler. Tie rods run through the cast iron sections and hold them together under tension, keeping the section joints compressed so the seals between them stay tight. This is the complete rod as supplied by Ideal, listed under the rods and spindles part group.
Signs this part needs replacing
- Weeping or staining at the joint between boiler sections, which points to the sections no longer being held tightly together.
- A tie rod that has stretched, corroded or snapped, so it can no longer hold the section stack under the correct tension.
- Section joint gaskets that will not seal even after being renewed, because the rod cannot pull the sections back together.
- Visible rust tracking or scale build-up along the rod where it passes through the section bores.
- A rod that has been reused through several rebuilds and no longer holds torque.
Before you order
- Confirm the boiler is a six section unit, as this tie rod is supplied for that section count.
- Check the model and serial plate against the compatibility list to confirm the appliance is covered.
- Note the alternative and previous numbers so the correct rod is matched to older stock references.
- Renew the section joint seals at the same time as the rod, as the joints are disturbed during replacement.
