CANDANA Heat Deflector for Pit Boss 700–1600 Series — Stainless Steel Flame Tamer Replacement, Thick Gauge

CANDANA's stainless steel heat deflector is a direct replacement flame tamer for Pit Boss 700–1600 series pellet grills, restoring even heat and flame control for better smoking and grilling.

When a warped or rusty flame tamer reduces performance, this upgraded stainless steel heat baffle brings your Pit Boss pellet grill back to efficient operation. Built to the same fit dimensions as OEM parts, the CANDANA deflector minimizes hot spots, blocks direct flame contact, and helps maintain steady cooking temperatures so your food smokes and sears more predictably. It's a straightforward swap that reduces pellet waste and prolongs grill life.

How will this heat deflector affect grill heat distribution?

The CANDANA flame tamer evens heat across the grill grate by dispersing radiant heat and shielding food from direct flame. That decreases localized burning and promotes consistent smoking throughout the cooking surface. You'll notice more uniform doneness and fewer flare-ups.

• Stainless-steel construction resists warping under repeated high-heat cycles
• Wide coverage area reduces hot spots across the grate
• Design blocks direct flame while reflecting heat back upward for steady temps

Is this compatible with my Pit Boss model and easy to install?

This deflector is manufactured to fit Pit Boss 700, 820, 850, 1000, 1150, 1250, 1300, and 1600 series grills as a direct replacement for the original flame tamer and heat baffle. Installation is tool-free for most users—just remove the old part and set the new piece into position. The precision sizing reduces gaps or misalignment that can affect performance.

• Direct-fit replacement for multiple Pit Boss series to save time shopping for parts
• Simple drop-in installation, no modifications needed
• Restores original heat flow and grill efficiency quickly

What materials and durability features does this replacement offer?

The deflector is made from heavy-duty stainless steel chosen for corrosion resistance and strength under repeated heating cycles. Compared with thinner replacement plates, this upgrade resists rust, deformation, and premature failure. That durability translates to longer service life and less frequent replacements.

• High-grade stainless steel resists rust and heat-induced warping
• Thicker gauge for improved structural integrity and lifespan
• Designed for frequent smoking and high-heat grilling conditions

What cooking improvements can I expect after replacing my flame tamer?

Replacing a damaged or corroded flame tamer restores predictable temperature control and reduces pellet consumption by improving heat efficiency. Expect fewer flare-ups, more even bark development on smoked cuts, and steadier low-and-slow temperatures for long cooks. The result is more consistent texture and flavor across the grill surface.

• Reduced pellet usage thanks to improved heat reflection and efficiency
• Less direct flame contact, so food cooks without burning spots
• More reliable smoker temperatures for ribs, brisket, chicken, and whole birds

Who is this for? Pit Boss pellet grill owners who want a long-lasting, OEM-fit replacement for a worn or warped flame tamer. It's ideal for backyard pitmasters who smoke regularly and need better heat distribution, hobbyists restoring older grills, and anyone who prefers a durable stainless-steel upgrade to flimsy stock parts. Simple to install and engineered for repeated high-heat use, the CANDANA heat deflector helps you get back to consistent smoking and grilling quickly.
