Orifices for Valves

Orifices are responsible for the amount of gas that flows into the burners. Orifices are brass fittings that screw into (spud) or onto (hood) valves. These orifices will have various hole sizes as they determine the gas type either Propane or Natural Gas. We carry pre-drilled orifices (for specific brands) as well as blank orifices with starter holes.

Propane orifice hole sizes are smaller than Natural Gas as it is a higher pressure Gas than Piped (Natural Gas). You cannot use a grill set for Propane on Natural Gas or vice versa. If you purchase a Natural Gas Grill and need to use Propane, that Grill will need to be Converted to LP (Propane)

Any drilling of a gas orifice must be performed by licensed gas technicians.
