Cross-section to scale, from the dimensions IMS publishes for this basket. The border is what seats in the portafilter — not the tamper figure the size is usually quoted by. See why “58mm” isn’t one standard.

That model name is an IMS product code — series, cup count, height and hole pattern are all encoded in it. IMS basket codes, decoded explains how to read one, and lists every code covered here.

This basket is one of a line. See every IMS B70 Competition basket compared — the whole ladder of heights and variants on one page, with the three diameters they share.

Fits these machines

IMS’s B70-series competition basket for 58mm groups, in the 2-cup 26mm-height convex variant (code B702TCH26E). The nominal 58mm size refers to the tamper fit (IMS specifies Ø 58/58.4mm precision tampers); IMS’s own dimensions are Ø 70mm border, Ø 60mm body, 26mm height. The machine cross-references follow IMS’s official B70 compatibility list, which names La Marzocco, Rancilio, Lelit, Rocket, ECM and ‘BREVILLE (The Oracle)’ explicitly — the Oracle is Breville’s one 58mm machine; the 54mm Barista/Bambino lines are not B70 compatible. Deliberately NOT cross-referenced to the Gaggia Classic Pro: IMS’s catalogue puts Gaggia in the B68 series, whose border is 2mm narrower “for a better fit in portafilters of the quoted brands”. Verified against the official IMS product page and Competition catalogue on 2026-07-04.
