Hongso 17-inch Porcelain-Coated Cast Iron Grill Grates — Fits Nexgrill Models, Even-Heat Searing

These Hongso 17" porcelain-coated cast iron grill grates replace worn factory grates on compatible Nexgrill, Char-Broil, Kenmore and other models to restore even heat and professional searing.

If your grill’s original cooking surface is warped, flaking, or no longer searing food evenly, a direct-fit replacement set of solid cast-iron grates can bring it back to life. Hongso’s 17-inch porcelain-coated cast iron grates are sized and profiled to match a wide range of Nexgrill models (including many 4- and 5-burner variants), plus select Char-Broil, Kenmore, Uniflame and other brand grills. The heavy-duty cast iron core retains heat exceptionally well while the porcelain enamel finish reduces sticking and makes cleanup easier than bare iron.

Will these grates fit my Nexgrill model?

These replacement grates are designed as direct-fit parts for many Nexgrill models listed in the product specifications. Measure your existing grate: each half is 17" x 13 1/4" for a combined 17" x 26 1/2" cooking surface. Compare original part numbers when available to confirm compatibility.

How do these grates affect cooking performance?

Porcelain-coated cast iron combines the heat-holding power of iron with a smoother, low-stick enamel surface. That means faster recovery when you open the lid, better sear marks on steaks and chops, and more consistent grilling temperatures across the cooking area.

• Cast iron core retains and distributes heat evenly for consistent searing.
• Porcelain enamel resists food sticking and simplifies scrubbing afterward.
• Thick bars produce well-defined grill marks and help render fats effectively.
• Durable finish reduces flaking when properly maintained.

What care does porcelain-coated cast iron require to last?

These grates need straightforward maintenance to keep the enamel intact and the iron performing well. Routine preheating and brushing after use prevent buildup, while avoiding harsh thermal shocks and abrasive cleaners helps preserve the finish.

• Preheat grates on high for about 15 minutes before cooking to burn off residue.
• Use a stiff grill brush for cleaning; avoid metal scouring pads that can damage enamel.
• Dry and lightly oil before storage to prevent rust on any exposed iron spots.
• Confirm dimensions before ordering to avoid returns and ensure correct fit.

Are these grates safe and long-lasting?

Hongso builds these grates to meet commonly accepted safety and quality checks. The porcelain coating provides a food-safe cooking surface while the dense cast-iron structure is built for repeated heating cycles when cared for properly.

• Made from porcelain-coated cast iron for a durable cooking surface.
• Passed SGS-related testing to meet typical safety standards.
• Designed to restore searing ability and heat retention to older grills.
• Replacement part numbers included to ease verification before purchase.

Who is this for: Home grillers with aging or damaged cooking grates who want to revive a Nexgrill, Char-Broil, Kenmore, Uniflame or similarly compatible gas grill without replacing the entire unit. These grates suit cooks who value strong heat retention, crisp sear marks and easier post-cook cleanup, and who will follow basic care steps to maintain the enamel finish.
