Whirlpool WPW10169985 Range Surface Burner Single Cap

The Whirlpool WPW10169985 is an alternative surface burner cap for Whirlpool gas ranges. It rests right away on top of the burner head and performs both purposes. For starters, it acts as an obstruction, shielding the burner head from spills and debris that might block the gas flow or damage the delicate components. Furthermore, the burner cap helps to evenly distribute the burner flame across the pot or pan placed on the stovetop. This ensures that the food gets cooked effectively and consistently across. The WPW10169985 typically comes in black and constructed from porcelain-coated metal, which makes it suitable with the vast majority of Whirlpool gas ranges. A broken or clenched burner cap may result in uneven flames, wasted gas, and possible hazards to safety.
