W11167099 Whirlpool Surface Burner Orifice Holder

The Surface Burner Orifice Holder is a standard part designed for use in Whirlpool gas ranges, and it's essential for maintaining proper gas flow to the burners. This OEM (Original Equipment Manufacturer) component ensures the gas orifice is securely held in place, which is crucial for the efficient operation of the range.

Over time, the orifice holder may experience issues due to normal wear, impact damage, or warping. These problems can impede its ability to properly secure the orifice, leading to operational inefficiencies.

When an orifice holder is failing, you might notice several indicators, including:
- Uneven or insufficient gas flow to the burners
- Difficulty lighting burners or burners that light unevenly
- Noticeable changes in the flame's color or intensity
- Overall diminished performance of the burners

This replacement part is not only compatible with Whirlpool gas ranges but also fits models from Maytag, KitchenAid, Jenn-Air, Amana, Magic Chef, Admiral, Norge, Roper, and Kenmore. This makes it a versatile solution for a range of appliance repairs.
