What it is

The Male Plug 290 T9 - R 1 1/2 Inch is a threaded plug used on Potterton Commercial boiler assemblies. It carries the Potterton part number 5140642 and is listed for the Potterton Commercial NXR3i range of sectional boilers. The plug closes off a threaded tapping in the boiler, sealing the opening against water or flue gas loss depending on where it is fitted.

Signs this part needs replacing

  • Weeping or visible water tracking from the plug seating
  • Corrosion, pitting or scale build-up on the plug body or thread
  • Damaged, crossed or flattened thread preventing a clean seal
  • The plug cannot be tightened down to seal, or has been deformed during removal

Before you order

  • Confirm the thread size required is R 1 1/2 inch before ordering
  • Check the appliance model against the NXR3i fit list above
  • Cross-check the part number 5140642 against the boiler's documentation or data plate
  • Confirm whether thread sealing tape or compound is needed separately for the joint
