The kit includes a 7432 cooking grate (17.5\"), a 7440 charcoal grate (13.5\" designed to nest below the cooking surface), and an electronic thermometer to help monitor grill temperature. All parts are plated steel for improved durability and easier cleanup compared with untreated cast grate surfaces.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eWill these grates fit my Weber 18.5\" kettle or smoker?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eYes — the kit was manufactured to match the dimensions of Weber 7432 and 7440 parts commonly used in 18.5\" kettles and compatible smokers. The cooking grate measures 17.5\" across, while the charcoal grate measures 13.5\" because it sits below the cooking surface, inside the kettle.

With routine care — light brushing after each cook and occasional deep cleaning — the plating helps preserve the structure and appearance. They are not cast iron, so they heat and cool faster and require less aggressive maintenance.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003ePlated-steel construction for corrosion resistance and quick cleanup.\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eNon-stick surface reduces food adhesion during cooking.\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eBrush or wash with warm soapy water; avoid harsh abrasives to extend plating life.\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eNot intended as cast-iron replacements; different heat retention profile.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eWhat does the charcoal grate do and why is its size different?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThe charcoal grate holds briquettes or lump charcoal above the ash and under the cooking grate, improving airflow and combustion. Its 13.5\" diameter is intentional: it sits inside the 18.5\" kettle under the 17.5\" cooking grate, creating the correct vertical spacing for charcoal and ash management. Raised side handles make removal and ash cleanup easier.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eSupports charcoal and improves even burn and airflow.\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e13.5\" size nests beneath the cooking grate in 18.5\" kettles.\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eRaised side handles for safe removal and ash handling.\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eExtends grill life by separating charcoal from the bottom shell.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eHow accurate and useful is the included electronic thermometer?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThe included electronic thermometer provides a quick reference for grill temperature so you can make adjustments to vents and fuel.

This Hisencn set suits owners of 18.5\" Weber-style kettles and compatible smokers who need a reliable replacement cooking grate, a charcoal support that nests properly, and a basic electronic thermometer. It's a practical option for backyard grillers who want durable plated-steel parts that simplify cleaning and restore correct grill geometry after wear or loss of original components. If you prefer cast-iron heat retention or factory-original branding, compare materials and fit before ordering.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003csection class=\"product-faq-snippet\"\u003e\u003ch3\u003eFAQ\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"faq-item\"\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"faq-q\"\u003eQ: Will this kit fit my Weber 18.5-inch kettle?\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"faq-a\"\u003eA: Yes—designed for Weber 7432 (17.5\") and 7440 (13.5\") parts used in 18.5\" kettles; confirm by measuring existing grates.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"faq-item\"\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"faq-q\"\u003eQ: Can I clean these plated-steel grates in the dishwasher?\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"faq-a\"\u003eA: Dishwasher use is not recommended; hand-wash with warm soapy water and a brush to protect plating.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\u003c\/section\u003e","brand":"Hisencn","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":56799735447892,"sku":"B087RH4NT4","price":74.18,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/1063\/2652\/4244\/files\/hisencn-front-view-cooking-grate.jpg?v=1786736812","url":"https:\/\/gardenluxe.co.uk\/products\/hisencn-17-5-inch-cooking-grate-kit-for-weber-7432-7440-13-5-inch-charcoal-grate-electronic-thermometer-plated-steel","provider":"Gardenluxe Uk","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
