Providing manual control of the cooking temperature setting, the Vulcan Hart 00-498041-00012 Gas Griddle Thermostat Knob is an OEM control component used with commercial gas griddles.

Connecting the external control surface with the thermostat assembly, the knob transfers rotational movement through its mounting interface. This mechanical connection allows the thermostat shaft to respond to operator adjustments while maintaining the intended relationship between the knob and temperature-control mechanism.
