• Helps restore normal flame height and even heating when the orifice is clogged or damaged
• Commonly used when burners show weak, uneven, yellow/sooty flames or fail to light reliably
• Matches the natural gas #13 sizing specified for certain burner assemblies

What's included: One orifice spud Install notes:

• Turn off the gas supply and unplug the appliance before starting any work
• Allow the range to cool completely and remove grates/burner caps to access the orifice
• Use the correct-size wrench; thread carefully and avoid overtightening to prevent damage
