Gibson Range / Cooktop / Oven Screws, Nuts, Washers

This hex nut secures mating bolts and studs to hold appliance components in place, helping maintain stable connections and safe operation. It's a simple, replaceable fastener used where threaded hardware is required. What it does:

• Secures a bolt or stud to prevent parts from loosening during operation
• Provides a reliable threaded connection for panels, brackets, or assemblies
• Restores proper fit when an original nut is stripped, corroded or missing
• Helps reduce vibration-related movement when used with the correct mating hardware

• One hex nut

• Verify matching thread size, pitch and nut style to the original before installing
• Hand-start the nut to avoid cross-threading, then tighten
• Replace any damaged or corroded mating hardware to ensure a secure connection
• Disconnect power and follow basic safety procedures before servicing the appliance

A truss-head shoulder screw used where a short, smooth bearing surface and a wide head are needed for pivoting or locating parts. Replaces worn or missing screws to restore proper alignment and movement. What it does:

• Provides a smooth, stepped shaft (shoulder) for parts to pivot or slide on
• Secures components while maintaining precise spacing and alignment
• Stops looseness that can cause rattling, binding, or uneven movement
• Works in assemblies where a wide truss head prevents pull-through

• Use the correct screwdriver or bit to avoid stripping the truss head
• Do not overtighten; torque just enough to secure the part while allowing intended movement
• If working near electrical components, disconnect power to the appliance first

This is an authentic OEM replacement bracket locking screw sourced directly from the manufacturer for use on range tops. The stovetop bracket is attached to the stovetop and the stove body. This locking screw is a fully threaded 2.1-inch screw. If this screw becomes loose or rusted, it should be removed and replaced to ensure the stovetop remains fully seated and in good working condition. If the screw is missing, the stovetop bracket will not be fully functional, and the stovetop could become loose. To start, disconnect the power and gas from the unit before replacing the screw on the bracket. Make certain the stove burners are not hot. Remove the burner grates, burner caps, and control knobs. Lift the range top cover. Locate the mounting bracket on the wall unit. If the screw is in the bracket but has rusted, use a screwdriver to remove the missing screw. Set the nut aside for use on the new screw. Install the new screw and the nut from the last screw. Check the bracket alignment before tightening the screw. Tighten the screw to the nut. Lower the stovetop and reconnect the power and gas. This bracket locking screw is a heavy-duty 2.1-inch silver metal screw. It is designed for use on gas ranges manufactured by Frigidaire, Kenmore, Electrolux, and Crosley.
