Whirlpool w11485874 Center Orifice Replacement Part

Product Description

The WHIRLPOOL w11485874 is a genuine OEM center orifice designed for use in Whirlpool gas cooking appliances. The orifice controls the flow of gas to the burner, metering fuel at a precise opening size to maintain consistent flame output. This part is a direct factory replacement, ensuring it meets the original design specifications for the unit it serves. Installation is typically performed by a qualified appliance technician or a licensed gas technician familiar with residential gas cooking equipment.

The w11485874 center orifice is intended for the center burner position on compatible Whirlpool gas range cooktops. It is used when the original orifice is damaged, corroded, clogged, or when a burner conversion is required. Replacing a worn or blocked orifice restores proper flame shape and fuel efficiency to the affected burner. This is a genuine Whirlpool OEM component, not an aftermarket substitute.

Shut off the gas supply to the appliance at the shutoff valve and disconnect power before beginning any service. Use appropriate thread sealant rated for gas service if required by the fitting type, and leak-test all gas connections with an approved solution after reassembly.
