Bard 168-013BX is an OEM internal flue baffle used in select Bard high economy gas fired furnace cabinets to help guide flue gas flow through the heat exchanger area for proper draft and consistent heating performance. Replacing a bent, rusted, or missing baffle helps maintain correct combustion venting characteristics and can reduce nuisance rollout or sooting issues caused by disturbed flue paths. This is a Bard factory part intended to match original fit and mounting points, so confirm your unit model and parts breakdown before ordering to ensure the correct inside baffle is selected for your furnace configuration.
Bard uses suffixes like "BX" to manage parts internally. These do not change the physical form or function of the part.
A part number ending in "BX" simply means it is packaged in a box for shipping, rather than for internal assembly use.
Example: 8406-142BX is physically identical to 8406-142.
