The Orifice Spud is an OEM part for GE ranges and cooktops. It is a small, precise component responsible for regulating the flow of gas to the burner, ensuring a controlled and efficient flame for cooking. This spud is essential for maintaining the correct gas pressure and flame size.

Over time, orifice spuds can become clogged or damaged due to residue buildup, corrosion, or improper cleaning. These issues can lead to inefficient burner performance or safety hazards.

Symptoms of a bad orifice spud include:

• Uneven or weak burner flames
• Difficulty in igniting the burner
• Yellow or flickering flames
