Description

The Nut is an OEM component specifically designed for select Bosch gas cooktops. As a fastening mechanism, it firmly holds valves and brackets without loosening.  

Zinc plating resists corrosion ensuring dependable seating even under pot handles and continuous thermal expansion/contraction. Precision threading aligns without galling or binding that could jeopardize safe regulator positioning.

Causes requiring nut replacement commonly relate to wear through threads no longer maintaining clamping pressure on brass regulators over decades of use. Physical damage or over-tightening during assembly/service could also crack or distort housings.

Symptoms signaling the need for new nuts include:

• Gas leaks detected around valve connections or mounting points
• Loosened assemblies enabling unwanted vibrations from frequent cooking  
• Difficulty reaching proper tightening torques without hardware damage

This OEM Bosch replacement nut is also compatible with Thermador, Gaggenau, and some Kenmore ranges.
