Whirlpool W11160346 Spud Orifice Replacement Part

Product Description

The WHIRLPOOL W11160346 is a spud orifice replacement part designed for use in Whirlpool home appliances. A spud orifice is a precision-machined fitting that controls gas or fluid flow within an appliance system, ensuring correct pressure and volume delivery to downstream components. This type of part is typically replaced during a service call when flow restriction, corrosion, or damage is diagnosed. Installation is performed by a qualified appliance technician or licensed trade professional familiar with the applicable appliance system.

This part is intended for use in Whirlpool branded home appliances where the original spud orifice requires replacement. It is suited for residential appliance service applications. Technicians servicing gas appliances should verify burner orifice sizing and appliance model compatibility before installation to ensure proper system operation.
