Cooktop Screws, Nuts, Washers

This is a replacement mounting nut for VG 230 assemblies. It provides a secure threaded connection to help keep the VG 230 component fastened and stable, restoring proper fit and reducing vibration-related looseness. What it does:

• Secures the VG 230 component to its mounting or mating hardware
• Maintains a tight threaded connection to prevent part movement or loosening
• Helps preserve alignment and stable operation of the connected assembly
• Can be used during routine repairs or when replacing stripped or damaged fasteners

• Disconnect power and any supply lines before starting repairs; follow appliance safety procedures
• Use the correct socket or wrench to avoid rounding the nut; hand-start the threads to prevent cross-threading
• Tighten to a snug fit—do not overtighten to avoid damaging mating threads or components
• If threads are damaged or corroded, replace mating hardware.
