Commercial Grill Orifice

A gas grill orifice is a basic catering equipment that controls the gas flow from the propane tank to the grill’s burners. The orifice can be located near the burners and adjusted so that the gas amount leading into the grill can be controlled. It achieves precise control of flame by restricting the flow of gas through a small hole, where this is necessary to achieve the best cooking temperatures. The orifice must be kept in order for it to work properly. It will gradually get clogged with dirt and debris, reducing gas flow and obstructing even heating. Cleaning at regular intervals to remove any buildup and once in a while for damage (i.e. cracks or warping) is recommended. PartsFe UK offers different types of gas grill orifices readily available from top brands for commercial catering equipment.
