The Burner Head is an OEM part for Whirlpool ranges. It is responsible for distributing gas to create an even flame for cooking on the stovetop. This burner head ensures efficient gas flow and optimal flame control, which are essential for consistent cooking performance.

Causes of a bad burner head can include clogging from food debris or grease, corrosion due to prolonged exposure to heat and moisture, or physical damage from impact. Such issues can obstruct gas flow and result in uneven heating or poor flame quality.

Symptoms of a bad burner head include:

• Uneven flame or poor flame control
• Difficulty igniting the burner
• Low or inconsistent heat output
• Unusual noises such as hissing or popping during operation

This OEM part is also compatible with Maytag, KitchenAid, Jenn-Air, Amana, Magic Chef, Admiral, Norge, Roper, and Kenmore models.

The Torx Screw is an OEM replacement part for Whirlpool brand appliances. The Torx Screw is responsible for providing secure and stable connections between different components of washing machines, dryers, dishwashers, and more. These screws are characterized by their star-shaped drive design, which offers better torque transfer and reduces the risk of stripping or cam-out. Sold individually. 7-18 x 3/4"

Causes of a bad Torx screw can include stripping of the screw head, rust or corrosion from prolonged exposure to moisture, or damage from over-tightening or cross-threading. A compromised screw can lead to loose or insecure parts, which can affect the performance and safety of the appliance.

Symptoms of a bad Torx screw include:

• The screw head being stripped and difficult to turn
• Rust or corrosion visible on the screw
• The screw not holding components securely
