4. Installation Guide
The RV stove grommets are designed for easy replacement of existing or missing parts on your stove grates. Follow these steps for proper installation:
- Preparation: Ensure your stove is turned off and cool to the touch. Remove the stove grates from the cooktop.
- Remove Old Grommets: Carefully remove any old, worn, or damaged grommets from the grate's feet or designated slots. If they are deteriorated, they may crumble easily.
- Clean Area: Clean the area where the new grommets will be installed to ensure a secure fit.
- Install New Grommets: Press the new SAVITA RV Stove Grommets firmly into the designated holes or onto the feet of the stove grates. Ensure they are seated completely and securely. The elastic nature of the rubber will provide a snug fit.
- Reinstall Grates: Once all grommets are installed, carefully place the stove grates back onto the cooktop. Ensure they sit level and do not wobble.

5. Usage and Benefits
These RV stove grommets serve several important functions for your cooking appliance:
- Effective Protection: The grommets act as a protective barrier between the metal stove grates and the stove surface, preventing scratches and wear.
- Noise Reduction: By providing a cushioned contact point, they significantly reduce the noise caused by the stove grates bumping against the stove during use or travel.
- Stable Fit: They ensure a snug and stable fit for the stove grates, preventing them from shifting or sliding during cooking.
- High-Quality Material: Made from premium rubber, these grommets are designed to withstand high temperatures and resist wear, ensuring a long service life.

6. Care and Maintenance
To ensure the longevity and continued performance of your RV stove grommets, consider the following maintenance tips:
- Regular Inspection: Periodically inspect the grommets for signs of wear, cracking, or deterioration, especially if you use your RV stove frequently.
- Cleaning: If the grommets become dirty, wipe them clean with a damp cloth. Avoid harsh chemicals that could degrade the rubber material.
- Replacement: Replace grommets as soon as they show signs of significant wear or damage. Worn grommets can lead to wobbly grates and potential damage to your stove. The included 8-piece kit provides sufficient replacements for multiple uses.
7. Troubleshooting
If you encounter any issues with your RV stove grommets, refer to the following common problems and solutions:
- Grates are still wobbly after installation:
- Ensure all grommets are properly seated and fully inserted into their respective slots.
- Verify that you have installed the correct number of grommets for your specific stove grate design.
- Check if the grommets are the correct size for your stove model. While compatible with Magic Chef and Atwood, slight variations may exist.
- Grommets fall out easily:
- Ensure the grommet and the hole are clean and free of grease or debris that might prevent a secure fit.
- Confirm that the grommet is not damaged or stretched. Use a new grommet if necessary.
- Grommets show rapid wear:
- While made of high-quality rubber, extreme heat exposure or prolonged heavy use can accelerate wear. Ensure proper ventilation around your stove.
- Replace worn grommets promptly to maintain optimal performance and protection.
