Restore strong, even flame on your large burner. This sealed burner head replaces the 12K position on gas ranges/cooktops, helping recover reliable lighting and consistent heat when the original head is clogged, corroded, or damaged.

• Directs gas through calibrated ports to deliver a stable, even flame on the 12K burner position
• Helps address: burner won't light or lights intermittently; weak, uneven, or yellow flames; flame lifting or sputtering
• Replace when ports are clogged beyond cleaning, or the head is warped, cracked, or corroded
• Seats over the orifice and spark igniter in sealed-burner designs

• Disconnect power and shut off gas; allow the surface to cool completely
• Remove grate and cap; lift off or unthread the old head, retaining any mounting screw
• Clean the mating surface; align the new head over the orifice and igniter so it sits flat; if screw-retained, tighten snugly only
• Reinstall cap and grate; restore gas/power and confirm proper ignition and flame

This control knob replaces a worn or missing knob on your range or cooktop. It restores a secure grip and clear selection so you can set burner or oven functions smoothly and accurately. What it does
