Utheer 60040 Grill Burner Tube, 304 stainless Steel, for Weber 69957/45657

For my Weber Spirit E310 with front ignition from 2015: five stars based purely on initial impressions: a perfect fit, surprisingly easy installation, and excellent function, at a fair price. It got my grill to 600 degrees. Don't waste time messing with old rusty burners and crossover tubes with clogged holes like I did, this should be a no brainer.

Easy install, great fit, nice quality, everything looks great and lit up first button push…time for summer BBQ’s !

This product looks exactly like the original "Webber" product. I bought the 3 burner (Natural Gas) grill at Home Depot about 6 to 8 years ago. I have contacted Webber to warranty parts in the past but for some reason I bought this replacement kit. I am glad I did- finally I got my ignitor back again. For the last year or 2 the ignitor just didn't lite the burner. I tried new batteries and bending the electrode, I wrapped a copper wire around the burner near the ignitor but nothing worked. I am a HVAC service tech so I am use to working on furnaces so this wasn't too hard to figure out. I decided to make it more challenging by doing it after dark with a flashlight. Remember to Shut Off the gas supply first. The main thing is to take the front control panel off and let it dangle by the internal gas line while you pull the burners out. A lot of Phillip's screws and two- 7/16" bolts hold panel in place. Also take the gas line support loose on the right side. Don't disconnect or severely bend the internal gas line. The washer headed screws at the back of the burners were hopelessly rusted in place. Fortunately the burners slid out under them I pulled out burners through the front. The left burner has a clip that holds the ignitor electrode in place. The mounting bracket on the new burner had to be pried up to get the ignitor to slide in place. Be careful use a flat blade screwdriver and pry just enough to get it to slide. This tight connection is critical and I think why my old one wasn't sparking right. This provides the grounded connection for the ignitor. It has to fit tight metal to metal. Make sure it pushes tightly and completely into place. Rout the wires just like the old ignitor system. The electric control module fits in place just like the old one and the wires are easy to figure out. While the burners were out I cleaned up the burner bowl and used pliers to grab the 3 rusted screws in the back of the burners and slowly unscrewed them. The kit came with 3 new screws. The screws don't hold the burners tight. They do keep the burners in place. The burners are all different so each of the three fit in only one way. Put the crossover tube and burners together carefully - study them to be sure the flame holes all face the right way and that the crossover tube will carry the flame across the the next burner. After it's all back together it lit with the ignitor but the flame jumps around off the burners and the burners didn't stay completely lit. This is the important tip that the instructions don't mention---- each burner has an air shutter at the front end that may need to be adjusted. The shutters also have a metal screen to keep bugs out - don't remove the screens Just loosen or remove the shutter set screw with the burners working and carefully adjust the shutters to make the flame stabilize. This is easier in the dark so you can see the flame. A well defined blue flame is what you want. I found closing the shutters to 1/4 to 1/3 open worked best for my grill. Watch the flame on the cross over tube as well it should be small but a continuous string of flames. Move the control knobs slowly between hi and low and make sure the burners are blue and stable. Don't just go for the biggest flame from the burners. Look for the largest well defined flame on high without a rolling/ dancing type flame. Tighten the set screws back to hold the shutters in place. Propane has a much higher pressure than natural gas so adjusting the burner shutters will be different but same thing applies look for a strong well defined blue flame on high. Orange tops on the flames are not good and should be adjusted out as much as possible using the shutters. Orange flames are inefficient flames and produce more carbon monoxide they are usually more common in dirty or rusty burner tubes. I've cooked several steaks in the 2 weeks since I rebuilt the burner and it seems to work like new.

Just installed burners, etc. Grill disassembley was a little harder than expected, but the replacement parts went in easily & worked perfectly.

Compared to the original components, two burner tubes were unable to fully secure while the last bolt tightened the end just fine. I think they were just a hair thinner than the original ends, not a big deal. I replaced everything in the kit and it fired up just fine. Performance wise, the new burners sputters at the lowest heat setting. Otherwise on mid to high heat, performed like a new grill. I bought this kit because it was way cheaper than original Weber parts. Highly recommended if you want to save money. The biggest difference I noticed between my original burners vs these new ones. Maybe that’s why it doesn’t have better heat control at the lower end. I’ll keep messing with it and see if there’s any modifications I can make. Only issue keeping it from 5 stars

This great quality and seems very close quality as Weber products!

Easy install. Works perfectly. My grill has new life. Thank you!

Worked out awesome!

These burner tubes were an exact fit and a better replacement than the factory tubes. Compared with local shopping, these are a great deal.

fit like it should and works perfect

Better than the original will be ordering a spare highly recommend if you own a webber Q

It was easy to replace the burner units, bbq works like new now.

Easy to install. Removing old rusty burners was the biggest difficulty.
