WB16K10026 / WB29K17 Dual Gas Burner Assembly - Pack of 2

Durable Cast Construction: Manufactured from heavy-duty cast metal designed to withstand the high thermal stress of daily cooking without warping, cracking, or corroding.
Synchronized Dual-Head Design: Combines two burner heads into a single, rigid assembly, ensuring consistent gas pressure across both cooking zones for balanced heat distribution.
Precision-Drilled Gas Ports: Features factory-aligned flame ports that produce a steady, concentrated blue flame, maximizing fuel efficiency and reducing soot buildup on your cookware.
Integrated Venturi Tubes: The precisely angled mixing tubes ensure the optimal air-to-gas ratio for safe combustion and reliable ignition across both burner heads.
Easy-Clean Surface: The smooth finish of the burner heads allows for easier removal of boiled-over food and grease, helping to prevent port blockages.

This assembly is a standard component for many gas ranges manufactured by General Electric. Key compatible brands include:

GE (General Electric): Fits various XL44 and Spectra series gas ranges.
Hotpoint: Compatible with many RGB series freestanding gas ranges.
Kenmore: Fits Sears/Kenmore models with the 363. prefix (manufactured by GE).
Note: This assembly is typically used for the left or right burner pairs. Please compare the dimensions and tube lengths of your existing burner to the new unit, as some models use different sized assemblies for different sides of the cooktop.

Uneven Flame Pattern: If sections of the burner head aren't lighting or the flame is "jumping," the internal gas channels may be clogged with grease or rust.
Heavy Rust or Flaking: If the cast metal is deteriorating, flakes can fall into and clog the gas orifice, leading to poor ignition or a gas smell.
Persistent Yellow Flame: Indicates poor air-gas mixing, often caused by spider webs, dust, or corrosion inside the venturi tubes that cannot be cleared by cleaning.
Cracked Burner Head: Any visible fracture in the metal body is a safety hazard and can lead to unpredictable gas flow.

Safety First: CRITICAL: Turn off the gas supply to the range and unplug the power cord before beginning. Ensure the cooktop is completely cool.
Clean the Orifices: PRO TIP: Before installing the new WB16K10026, use a thin wire or a specialized orifice cleaner to ensure the brass gas nozzles on the range are free of debris.
Venturi Alignment: Carefully slide the burner tubes over the gas orifices. If they are not perfectly centered, the burner may produce a whistling sound or fail to light properly.
Check the Spark Igniter: While the burners are removed, wipe down the ceramic spark igniter. If it is caked in grease, the new burner may struggle to spark.
Initial Burn: When you first light the new burners, you may see a small amount of orange flame or light smoke. This is normal as the factory protective coating burns off and should disappear within a few minutes.
