Ideal Washer 177985

The Ideal 177985 is a washer supplied for Ideal Commercial appliances, listed under the gaskets, o-rings, seals and washers group of spares. It is the sealing component used at a joint or connection point on the appliance, where it compresses to stop water or fluid escaping past the mating faces. The part carries the alternative number 4035909, which is the number often quoted on older Ideal documentation and parts lists.

• A visible weep or drip at the joint the washer seals
• Water tracking down the appliance casing or pooling beneath the connection
• The washer has hardened, flattened or cracked when inspected
• Scale or corrosion build-up on the sealing face
• A joint that continues to seep after being re-tightened

• Confirm the appliance model against the compatibility list, as the same washer number is used across several Evojet variants
• Check whether the number on the existing part is 177985 or 4035909, as both refer to the same washer
• Inspect the mating faces while the joint is open and replace any other seals disturbed during the repair
