Worcester Bosch Baffle Retainer 26-32 87161001560

The baffle retainer is a Worcester Bosch component used in the flue path of Danesmoor 26/32 oil boilers. It holds the baffles in their correct position inside the heat exchanger, keeping the flue gas path as the designer intended. Correct retention matters because displaced baffles change heat transfer and combustion performance.

• Rattling or knocking from the flue or boiler casing during firing
• Baffles found loose, dropped or out of position when the flueway is inspected
• Soot or heavy deposits building up in the flueway despite correct burner settings
• Flue gas readings drifting from the commissioning figures
• Visible distortion, corrosion or cracking on the retainer itself

• Confirm the boiler model and serial number against the compatibility list, as Danesmoor variants differ across the 26/32 range
• Check the existing retainer against part number 87161001560 or alternative number 1013225
• Inspect the baffles and any seals at the same time, as they are disturbed during access
• Work on the flueway and combustion components should be carried out by a competent oil engineer
