00493836 Bosch Range/Stove/Oven Orifice

Range/Stove/Oven Orifice
Bosch, along with its associated brands Thermador and Gaggenau, offers this Jet as an OEM part specifically designed for Bosch gas ranges. It features a metal base that securely connects each surface burner to the assembly.

The holder not only positions but also supports the burner, ensuring it sits properly above the gas valve and manifold. This arrangement is crucial for the stability of the burner during use and safeguards the internal components when the burners are detached for cleaning.

Over time, exposure to high temperatures can lead to issues with the surface burner holder, such as warping or deformation. These conditions are typically due to daily thermal stress endured by the metal holder.

Signs of a malfunctioning surface burner holder may include:

- Burners that do not sit level and stable, but instead rock or wobble
- Noticeable gaps between the burner base and the cooktop surface
- Loose connections to the gas tubes and valves within the unit
- Challenges when attempting to remove burners for cleaning and maintenance

This part is not only a genuine OEM item for Bosch but is also compatible with certain models from Thermador, Gaggenau, and Kenmore.
