This replacement burner cap sits on a gas range surface burner to protect the burner head and help direct the flame for more even heating. Use it to replace a cracked, chipped, or missing cap and restore stable burner performance. What it does:

• Covers the burner head to help shape and stabilize the gas flame for consistent cooking.
• Promotes even heat distribution across cookware by centering the flame.
• Keeps spills and food debris off burner ports for easier cleaning and more reliable ignition.
• Replace when cap is cracked, chipped, displaced, or causing uneven or yellowish/erratic flames.

• Make sure the range is turned off and fully cooled before handling burners.
• Remove the grate, lift the old cap straight off, and seat the new cap flat and centered on the burner head — no tools typically required.
• If the cap does not sit flush, clean the burner head of debris before reinstalling; do not force the cap.

The Grate Kit is an OEM part for Whirlpool gas cooktops. It includes precisely cut stainless grates that securely position above individual burners to support cookware during use.  

Symptoms of a bad grate kit can include warping that causes pots to wobble or grates to be difficult to remove. Heavy grease buildup may corrode thin metal supports.

Causes of a bad grate kit involve prolonged high-heat exposure and gradually misshaping precision contours over extended use. Pots dragged carelessly across surfaces can nick durable stainless finishes.

Symptoms of a bad grate kit are:

• Grates that no longer align properly over burners  
• Wobbly or loose grates unable to steady pans securely  
• Grease coating undersides affecting flame control 
• Corrosion compromising fine cooking tolerances

This OEM Whirlpool grate kit restores stable grilling functionality while complementing surrounding surfaces. Compatible with gas cooktops for brands like KitchenAid, Jenn-Air, and select Kenmore models.
