4055997607 Genuine Cast Iron Burner Rack for Electrolux Group Gas Cooktops, Replacement Pan Support Trivet

4055997607 is a genuine Electrolux group cast iron burner rack, the heavy pan support that sits over the burners on a gas cooktop. Electrolux lists it with the suffix 1, and a sister rack marked 90 has its own number, 4055997615, so check which one you have. No models are on file. Compare the shape, feet and size of your old rack, or send your model and PNC through the parts enquiry form.

When a cast iron cooktop rack needs replacing

The burner rack holds pans steady at the right height above the flame and lets the burner draw in enough air to burn cleanly. Cast iron handles heat well but it is brittle. Drop it on a hard floor or bang a heavy pot down and a finger can crack or snap off. Enamel can chip and lead to rust, and if the rack sits on rubber feet, worn ones let it rock and scratch the cooktop. A rack that wobbles or sits low leaves pans unstable and pushes the flame sideways, so replace a damaged one rather than making do.

Fitting the new burner rack

Make sure all burners are off and the cooktop has cooled, as cast iron holds heat for a long time. Lift the old rack straight up and clean the surface underneath. Sit the new rack so its locating feet or lugs drop into the same spots, then check it doesn't rock. Light each burner under it and make sure the flame is even and clear of the rack fingers.

Questions about this part

What do the 1 and the 90 mean on these racks?

Electrolux lists two cast iron burner racks, 4055997607 ending in 1 and 4055997615 ending in 90, without explaining the suffix. The 90 may relate to a 90cm cooktop, but that isn't confirmed, so match your old rack or ask us through the parts enquiry form.
