Abstract: The invention describes a tubular burner consisting of a cylindrical tubular body initially open at either end into which a distributor component can be slidingly fitted. The tubular body is provided with rows of apertures over a narrow area of the uppermost surface thereof to give the burner a flame strip. The distributor is substantially the same axial length as the tubular burner body but of smaller cross-sectional dimension than said body allowing for sliding fitment of the distributor inside the burner body. In accordance with the invention, the distributor has a first tubular portion and a second extension portion which is effectively a continuation of the upper surface of said first tubular portion, and both the tubular portion and extension portion of the distributor are provided with axially aligned flanges on either aide having a number of perforations.
