Thetford Triplex Oven/Grill Gas Tap Spares Kit (0.35 Type C)

This spares kit contains the 0.35 Type C gas control tap used on Thetford's Triplex 3-burner hob, oven and grill units. The oven and grill tap is a common failure point that causes the flame to not stay lit, drop out under thermostat control, or fail to regulate properly, and Thetford's own listed fix for these symptoms on the Triplex/Duplex range is to replace this tap. Fitting the kit restores correct gas flow and flame control to the oven or grill burner.

• Manufacturer part number: SSPA0458
• Component type: gas control tap spares kit, 0.35 size, Type C fitting
• Application: oven/grill tap
• Compatible appliances: Thetford Triplex 3-burner hob, oven and grill (closely related Type C 0.35 taps are also used on Thetford Duplex Mk3/4 units)

• Q: My Triplex oven won't stay lit, is this the part I need?
  A: A worn oven/grill tap is the most common cause of an oven or grill that won't hold its flame or drops out under thermostat control, and this kit replaces that tap.
• Q: How do I know if I need the Type C tap and not another type?
  A: Thetford's Triplex/Duplex range uses several tap types (e.g. screw Type S vs Type C); check your existing tap's fitting or your cooker's parts diagram against "0.35 Type C" before ordering.
• Q: Does this include a new control knob?
  A: This kit supplies the gas tap itself; control knobs are sold separately as their own spares kit.
• Q: Should I fit a gas tap myself?
  A: As this is a gas-carrying component, we recommend fitting by a qualified gas fitter or authorised service agent, with a gas-tightness check after installation.
