SMITH 100108976 is a Corrogard zinc-plated copper screw-in heating element designed for electric water heaters in residential and light commercial applications. Rated at 6000 watts and 277 volts, this mid-line element is engineered with a low watt density relative to its size, which reduces scale buildup and extends service life compared to higher-density alternatives. The zinc plating provides an added layer of corrosion protection over the copper base, making it well suited for installations where water quality or mineral content can accelerate element degradation. A gasket is included for a complete installation.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis element is intended for use in electric water heater systems in residential homes and light commercial buildings. It installs via a standard screw-in configuration with a 10.75-inch thread engagement specification. Plumbers and water heater service technicians performing element replacements or initial installs will find this a direct-fit option for compatible tank-type electric water heaters where a 277-volt, 6000-watt screw-in element is specified.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eRated 6000 watts at 277 volts for consistent heat output in compatible electric water heaters\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eCorrogard zinc-plated copper construction for improved corrosion resistance and durability\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eLow watt density design minimizes scale accumulation and extends element service life\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eScrew-in configuration for straightforward installation in standard tank-type water heaters\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eIncludes gasket — no separate gasket purchase required\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eSuitable for both residential and light commercial water heating applications\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDesigned as an OEM-style screw-in replacement element for tank-type electric water heaters requiring a 277-volt, 6000-watt mid-line element with a 10.75-inch torque specification.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eInstallation Notes\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eInstallation should be performed by a licensed plumber or qualified water heater service technician in accordance with local plumbing codes. Always disconnect electrical power at the breaker and shut off the cold water supply before removing or installing a heating element. Drain the tank sufficiently to expose the element before removal. Use an element wrench for proper seating and ensure the included gasket is correctly seated to prevent leaks before restoring water and power.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWattage\u003c\/strong\u003e: 6000 watts\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eVoltage\u003c\/strong\u003e: 277 volts\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eElement Length\u003c\/strong\u003e: 10.75 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eElement Type\u003c\/strong\u003e: Screw-In\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMaterial\u003c\/strong\u003e: Zinc-Plated Copper\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eGasket Included\u003c\/strong\u003e: Yes\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eApplication\u003c\/strong\u003e: Residential and Light Commercial\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eStandard Information\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBrand\u003c\/strong\u003e: A.O.
