Description

This cap-burner is the removable top piece that centers and protects the gas burner for even flame distribution and stable cookware support on your cooktop. Replacing a damaged or missing cap restores proper burner function and appearance. What it does:

• Covers the burner head to help direct and stabilize the gas flame for consistent heating.
• Protects the burner base from spills and debris that can cause uneven ignition or flame issues.
• Helps keep pots and pans steady on the cooking surface.
• Common signs you need this part: burner cap is cracked, warped, missing, or flames look uneven.

What's included:

• One cap-burner

Install notes:

• Allow the cooktop to be completely cool before removing or installing the cap.
• Lift out the old cap (no tools usually required), set the new cap into place so it sits flat and centered on the burner head.
• If the burner still ignites unevenly after replacing the cap, clean the burner ports and check for debris; refer to your appliance manual for cleaning guidance.
• If you smell gas or suspect a gas leak, stop.
