Description
These are replacement handles for newer era (post 1968) Revere Ware pots and Dutch ovens (i.e. the ones with one screw per handle that screw directly into the side of the pot). Please use the information below and the pictures to make sure they will fit your pot before you buy. These parts are newly manufactured by reverewareparts.com and are made to look and work just like original Revere Ware pot handles.
Material: Bakelite, stainless steel
Includes: Each handle includes two handle halves + two screws. Each order includes two handles, enough for one pot
Measurements: Approximately 3.0 in (75.5 mm) x 1.25 (32 mm) x 1.5 in in (38 mm)
Screw: Approximately .437 in/11.1mm long with a 10-32 thread pattern.
Fits: Newer era pots and Dutch ovens that use a single screw only. If your pot handles look like these, they should fit.
Replaces: The original Revere part number for this part was 36134.
Part Notes
The screws included with these handles are Phillips head, not slotted like some of the original Revere Ware pot handle screws were. Because the original slot head screws strip very easily, we consider this an improvement.
Bakelite notes
Because Bakelite is somewhat brittle, over tightening can cause the Bakelite to crack. Use caution when tightening.
It is generally not a good idea to put Bakelite parts in the oven; it can make them dull or in some cases crack. We do not offer our Bakelite parts as oven-safe.
It is generally not a good idea to put Bakelite parts in the dishwasher; the soap will eventually dull and dry out the surface of the Bakelite. We do not offer our Bakelite parts as dishwasher-safe.
Troubleshooting
On a small number of pots, the opening in the side of the handle that faces the pot may be slightly too small (about 1/16″). The solution is to scrape away some of the Bakelite with a sharp knife or a Dremel tool.
