4055888095 Genuine Wok Burner Outer Cap for Electrolux Group Gas Cooktops, Outer Ring Wok Burner Cap 105040

Dual ring wok burners usually use two caps, and 4055888095 is the genuine outer one, the larger ring cap that covers the outside flame crown on an Electrolux group gas cooktop. It's linked to the reference 105040. The inner cap is a separate part with its own number, so if both are damaged you'll need to order each. Match the burner and the number on your old cap before ordering 4055888095.

Wok burner flame patchy? The outer cap may be to blame

On a dual ring wok burner, the outer cap sits on the large crown and shapes the outside ring of flame, while the inner cap handles the centre. Wok burners run hot and catch plenty of spills, so outer caps can warp, crack or lose their coating. A damaged cap leaves gaps in the flame ring, causes flames to lift or burn yellow, and can make the burner hard to light. If the cap rocks on the crown or doesn't sit level, replace it before using the burner, since an uneven flame wastes gas and heats the wok poorly.

Fitting the outer wok cap

Let the cooktop cool and lift off the trivet. Remove both caps and clean the crown slots with a soft brush, letting everything dry fully. Refit the inner cap, then lay the new outer cap onto the outer crown, checking it sits level all the way around. Light the burner on high and check both flame rings burn evenly.
