Grill Valueparts Heat Baffle Replacement for Traeger Tailgater & Bronson 6x10in Stainless Steel — Even Heat, Tool-Free Install

This replacement heat diffuser fits several Traeger pellet grills and smoker models, including Tailgater 20, Bronson 20, Junior/Elite 20 and multiple BBQ055/BBQ155 variants. Built from upgraded stainless steel, the baffle resists rust and warping while redirecting flames and drips away from the firepot so heat spreads more consistently across the cooking surface. The single-piece unit measures approximately 6" L x 10" W x 6" H and installs quickly without tools.

How does this heat baffle improve cooking consistency?

By shielding the firepot from direct flame and directing heat sideways, the diffuser reduces hotspots and helps food cook more uniformly. It also minimizes grease contact with the firepot, which can reduce flare-ups and maintenance needs.

• Deflects flames to create a more even radiant heat pattern
• Prevents direct grease drips into the firepot
• Helps maintain stable temperatures across the grill grate
