Onlyfire's High Temp Wire Mesh Gasket Kit is a 180" peel-and-stick replacement designed to restore an airtight seal and temperature control on Kamado Joe Big Joe and similar ceramic grills.

When your kamado starts leaking heat or smoke, the quickest way to recover performance is a full gasket replacement.

Installation is straightforward and tool-free, making it an easy upgrade whether you’re tuning a Big Joe or refreshing an older ceramic cooker.

How does this gasket improve temperature control and smoke retention?

The gasket forms a consistent, heat-resistant seal between the lid and base that minimizes air leaks and stabilizes internal temperatures. Better sealing helps you hold setpoints longer and keeps smoke inside the cooking chamber for fuller flavor without constant vent adjustments.

• Internal steel wire mesh reinforces the shape under heat and compression.
• Fiberglass outer layer resists high temperatures and abrasion.
• Continuous 180" length covers full circumference for uniform sealing.
• Peel-and-stick backing creates an immediate airtight bond to rim surfaces.

How simple is the installation process for a Kamado Joe Big Joe?

Installation is designed for quick DIY replacement: remove the old gasket, clean the mating surface, then press the Onlyfire strip into place. No tools, adhesives, or professional help are required — most users finish the swap in under an hour.

• Peel off adhesive liner and press evenly along the grill rim.
• Trim excess with scissors for a neat fit at joint points.
• No spray glues or clamps needed — adhesive bonds at room temperature.
• Recommended to heat cycle slowly for the first cook to set the gasket.

Will this gasket hold up to repeated high-heat cooking sessions?

The combination of fiberglass material and a wire mesh core is engineered to handle extreme temperatures typical of kamado grilling. It resists breakdown, retains clamping pressure, and remains flexible through temperature changes so it continues protecting seal integrity over many cooks.

• High-temp fiberglass outer layer tolerates sustained heat exposure.
• Steel wire mesh prevents excessive compression and deformation.
• Heat-resistant adhesive backing resists detachment during use.
• Designed specifically to meet demands of ceramic kamado grills.
