Pilot Orifices

Anderson & Forrester Pilot Orifices

Pilot orifices work and operate just like burner orifices.  The difference between the two is that pilot orifices have smaller holes to support a smaller flame. 

Pilot orifices can be mounted like burner orifices (screwed into a threaded hole), but usually they are mounted using a compression or flare fitting.

Anderson & Forrester manufactures eight different kinds of pilot orifices, in a variety of sizes for your convenience.  We also make corresponding orifice tips and pilot extensions to help make your job easier and more efficient.

1. Penn-Baso

At Anderson & Forrester, we carry pilot orifices and fittings from Penn-Baso, a leader in the industry.  Penn-Baso pilot orifices come in kits and are sold separately for use in various applications.
