WB30X341 General Electric Range/Stove/Oven 8" Tilt Lock Hinge Mounted Surface Burner Kit

Product: Range/Stove/Cooktop 8" Tilt Lock Hinge Mounted Surface Burner Kit.

This component is suitable for instances when the element fails to heat. The kit contains an 8-inch element, three wires, a 2450-watt surface element, and a terminal block compatible with all three-wire setups.

The 8" Surface Element is a genuine OEM (Original Equipment Manufacturer) part designed for use with GE electric ranges, including brands like Hotpoint, General Electric, and Sears-Kenmore. It adds an extra burner to your range, ideal for cooking with multiple pots and pans. The element ensures even heat distribution and maintains stable temperatures for better cooking results, controlled via a straightforward dial.

Included in the package are a ceramic block, terminals, and screws. The updated version features a 6-point support bracket, an improvement over the previous 3-point design.

Common reasons for surface element issues are general wear and tear, physical damage such as cracks or breaks in the coil, or deterioration from continual use at high temperatures or from spills.

Indications of a malfunctioning surface element are:
- Uneven heat distribution on the cooking surface
- Trouble achieving or keeping desired temperatures
- Quick cooling of pans or unresponsive controls, suggesting premature failure.

This replacement part is also compatible with appliances from Hotpoint, RCA, and select Kenmore models.
