3543245017 Genuine Screw 2.8mm for Electrolux Group Cooktops, Factory Fixing Screw, Also Listed as Part 354324503

Electrolux screw 3543245017 is a genuine 2.8mm fixing screw, also catalogued under the shorter number 354324503. It's listed among Electrolux group cooktop parts. Screws of the same size can still differ in length, head and thread, so match the number with your parts list or the screw you're replacing before ordering. Using the right one keeps parts sitting the way they were built.

Why use the genuine screw on your cooktop

A 2.8mm screw is small, but on a cooktop it may hold a burner part, bracket, trim or panel in place. Grabbing whatever screw fits from the shed can cause problems. A screw that's too long can foul a gas or electrical component underneath, one with the wrong thread can strip the hole, and a plain steel screw may rust in a hot, damp spot. Screws also go missing when a cooktop is serviced or cleaned. Ordering by part number gets you the thread and length the appliance was built with, so parts sit and seal as intended.

Before you fit it

Turn off the cooktop and, on a gas model, shut the gas at the appliance isolation valve if you're working near burners or gas fittings. Any work on gas connections must be done by a licensed gas fitter. Start the screw by hand to avoid cross threading, then tighten it until snug. Over-tightening can strip the hole or crack plastic trims.

Questions about this part

Can I use a hardware store screw instead?

It might fit, but thread pitch, length and head style all need to match, and some screws sit close to gas or electrical parts. The genuine 3543245017 is the safest choice when your parts list calls for it.
