Reznor 96360 Pilot Assembly
The Reznor 96360 Pilot Assembly (also referenced as Reznor 096360) is a critical OEM natural gas pilot component engineered for high-performance ignition in commercial and industrial Reznor heating units. This assembly serves as a direct replacement to ensure flame rectification and consistent burner ignition across various model lines, including the F, B, and FE series. Fabricated to withstand the high thermal stress of heavy-duty cycles, the 96360 maintains the steady pilot flame necessary for safe appliance operation. As a genuine Reznor replacement part, it eliminates the geometry and alignment issues common with universal aftermarket kits, ensuring proper natural gas pilot burner positioning relative to the main burner. Note that this assembly utilizes a 1/8-inch pilot line; per manufacturer specifications, the 1/8" Pilot Male Compression Nut (Reznor 97572) is required for installation and must be sourced separately. Utilizing this furnace pilot assembly ensures your equipment remains compliant with its original listing and maintains peak combustion efficiency.

Common Questions & Technical Support:
Is the compression nut included with the 96360?
No, this assembly does not include the 1/8" pilot male compression nut. You must retain the existing hardware or purchase Reznor 97572 separately.
Can this pilot assembly be used for Propane (LP) units?
No, the 96360 is calibrated specifically for natural gas. Using this in a liquid propane application will cause improper combustion and is a safety hazard.

I had my Reznor changed over to propane years ago. I am needing a pilot assembly.My line that feeds the flame has broken and I need a replacement. Do you carry any for the propane fuel.
We will need the part numbers to check.
