A pilot burner assembly designed for commercial gas fryers delivers a controlled ignition flame to light the main burner during cooking operations. This unit features a 1/4-inch tube connection with a 3-way flame pattern that spreads flame evenly across multiple ignition points. It comes with a pre-installed natural gas orifice sized at .018 and includes an LP orifice with a .010 opening for compatible LP gas setups. The 1-1/2-inch hood width allows proper flame direction inside pilot burner assemblies. Used in commercial fryers and gas cooking equipment, this pilot assembly is installed in restaurant kitchens, cafeterias, and foodservice cooking stations where steady burner ignition is required. A clogged or worn pilot assembly may lead to weak flame output, slow ignition, or burner startup issues. Replacing the pilot assembly can improve flame delivery and restore normal ignition operation in compatible equipment.
