316527504 Frigidaire Orifice

The Range/Stove/Oven Natural Top Burner Orifice, 5K, serves as an essential component for Frigidaire gas ranges and cooktops. This OEM (Original Equipment Manufacturer) part is designed to manage the gas and air mixture that feeds the burners. The product line includes brands such as Frigidaire and Electrolux, and it also supplies parts for certain Sears-Kenmore models.

When the orifice malfunctions, several issues may arise, such as uneven or fluctuating flame heights and the production of yellow flames that can lead to increased soot or carbon accumulation. There is also a heightened risk of gas flashback.

The deterioration of this part often results from normal wear and tear, including the development of cracks. Additionally, improper cleaning methods can leave residues that alter the flame's behavior.

Replacing a defective orifice with this Frigidaire OEM part can help ensure efficient and safe operation. It is compatible with appliances from Electrolux, Gibson, and some Kenmore models, ensuring a proper fit and optimal performance.
