philpom Posted July 30, 2015 Share Posted July 30, 2015 I think it's time to retire this guy! Finally got around to installing my new grate since I needed to split the firebox. Oddly you might think it got real hot and started to sag but in reality it bowed up. Anyone else seen anything like this? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
S60 Posted July 30, 2015 Share Posted July 30, 2015 That is crazy. My lump grate split towards one end and started expanding, but it was replaced under warranty. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I also got a new one under warranty but I can be a little lazy sometimes. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Skiddy Posted July 30, 2015 Share Posted July 30, 2015 and some manufacturers say that SS will warp and bend.......looks to me like CI ain't so great. The real danger might be if it bent could it break the fire box? High-Que makes grates for other kamados but not Primo as the air flow on a Primo is a touch better. The reason to have a SS grate might not have anything to do with airflow and much more to do with stability. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
