Viking 042643-000 Center Grate

Product Description

The VIKING 042643-000 is a center grate designed as a direct OEM replacement component for Viking cooking equipment. Center grates sit at the middle position of a range or cooktop burner grate assembly, providing a stable, level surface for cookware over the active burner. This part is handled primarily by appliance service technicians and kitchen equipment repair professionals performing cooktop maintenance or grate replacement after wear, warping, or damage.

The 042643-000 center grate is intended for use with Viking residential range and cooktop models that use a multi-section grate layout. It fits into the center position of the grate assembly, bridging the burner array and completing the cooking surface. Service techs replacing a single damaged section can install this part without replacing the full grate set, reducing parts cost on standard cooktop service calls.

Key Features

• OEM Viking replacement center grate for multi-section range cooktop assemblies
• Designed to fit the center position of the burner grate layout
• Direct-replacement fitment for compatible Viking cooking equipment
• Supports standard cookware loads across the active burner zone

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style replacement center grate for compatible Viking residential range and cooktop assemblies. Verify the specific model number against Viking parts documentation before ordering to confirm fitment.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a qualified appliance service technician. Before servicing, ensure the range or cooktop is powered off and all burners are fully cooled. The center grate lifts in and out of position without tools on most Viking configurations; consult the model-specific service documentation to confirm proper seating and alignment within the full grate assembly.
