The Holder Orifice is an OEM component specifically designed for Whirlpool ranges. Located inside the gas burner unit, the orifice holds the brass valve that regulates gas flow to each burner flame. Its sturdy construction and precisely sized opening ensure a stable, controlled fuel supply.  

Causes of a bad holder orifice can include mineral deposits building over time which diminish sizing accuracy or cracks developing that cause leaks.

Symptoms of a bad holder orifice include:  

• Burners emitting unstable or sporadic flames of abnormal sizes
• Inability to efficiently ignite or achieve proper burner settings  
• Strong gas or fuel smells coming from the range top
• Discolored or corroded brass components

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