What it is

The Ideal 173381 is a return flange intended for 4-7 section commercial boiler assemblies in the Harrier range. It forms the bolted connection where the return pipework meets the boiler section, sealing the joint and directing returning water back into the heat exchanger. The flange is matched to the section count of the appliance, so the 4-7 section version is specific to that build size.

Signs this part needs replacing

  • Water weeping or a visible drip at the return connection on the boiler section
  • Rust staining or scale tracking around the flange face
  • A joint that will not seal after re-tightening, suggesting a distorted or corroded flange face
  • Repeated pressure loss on the system with no other obvious source
  • Visible pitting, cracking or deformation of the flange body

Before you order

  • Confirm the appliance model and section count, as the flange is matched to 4-7 section builds
  • Check the existing part number against 173381, 85535514 or 1179416 before ordering
  • Inspect the mating gasket or seal at the joint and replace it if it is compressed or damaged
