What it is

The Ideal chassis grommet, part number 176972, is a sealing bush that sits in the chassis panel where pipework, cable or hose passes through. It is an Ideal spare listed under gaskets, o-rings, seals and washers, and is used across the Vogue family of domestic gas boilers. Its job is to cushion the opening, stop the panel edge chafing the component passing through it, and close off the gap around that entry point.

Signs this part needs replacing

  • The grommet is split, cracked or has hardened with heat, so it no longer grips the panel opening.
  • Cable, pipe or hose passing through the chassis shows scuffing or chafing where it contacts the bare panel edge.
  • Water, flue gases or air are tracking through the chassis opening around the entry point.
  • Rattling or buzzing from the casing area where pipework is touching the panel edge.
  • The grommet is missing or displaced after earlier service or repair work on the boiler.

Before you order

  • Check the model and GC number on the boiler data badge against the compatibility list to confirm the grommet suits your appliance.
  • Part 176972 is also listed under 1782535; either number identifies the same chassis grommet.
  • Inspect adjacent seals and gaskets while the chassis is open, as these are often disturbed at the same time.
