soulmate 40" Outer / 36" Inner Steel Fire Pit Ring — Smokeless Ventilated Heavy-Duty Insert for DIY Backyard & Camping

The SoulMate Outdoor 40-Inch Outer / 36-Inch Inner fire pit ring is a heavy-duty steel insert designed to create a durable, smokeless DIY or planted fire pit that improves airflow and protects the ground.

This solid metal fire pit rim is built for backyard gatherings, camping, and patio bonfires. Made from heat-resistant steel, the eight-piece kit assembles quickly into a round liner that keeps embers contained, increases combustion efficiency with top ventilation holes, and offers a roomy interior for larger wood loads. Whether you set it above ground inside masonry or bury it partially for an in-ground pit, this insert simplifies construction and extends the life of your pit.

How does the SoulMate fire pit ring reduce smoke?

The ring uses a band of top ventilation holes that channel oxygen into the fire’s upper zone, promoting more complete combustion and reducing smoke output. Better airflow helps wood burn cleaner and produces more consistent flames for gatherings.

• Perforated upper flange improves oxygen circulation
• Round shape supports even heat distribution around fuel
• Open-bottom design allows ash to drop into sand or gravel for cleaner burning

Can I install this insert in a DIY brick or stone fire pit?

Yes — the insert is built as an eight-piece ring that bolts together for a close fit inside custom masonry. It’s designed to be fixed with screws so it stays secure during use, yet it’s straightforward to position while building around it.

• 36" inner diameter accommodates common brick/stone designs
• Eight interlocking panels assemble in minutes with included hardware
• Recommended base of sand or stones to protect soil when no bottom is used

Is this unit durable enough for repeated outdoor use?

Constructed from high-temperature steel, the SoulMate ring resists deformation from intense fire and frequent cycles of heating and cooling. Its solid-metal construction keeps ash and debris contained and preserves the pit’s shape season after season.

• Heat-resistant steel resists warping under high temperatures
• Fixed screw connections prevent panels from separating during use
• Low-maintenance surface suitable for outdoor conditions

How versatile is the ring for different outdoor setups?

The unit works well for above-ground insertion into a built pit or for creating a semi-buried, in-ground fire pit. It’s also lightweight enough to transport for campsite use, while its large capacity supports bigger bonfires and longer burn times.

• Use inside masonry, stone, or surrounded by soil when buried
• Large internal volume handles more firewood and produces bigger flames
• Portable eight-panel kit suits backyard, terrace, or camping setups

Who is this for? Homeowners and DIY builders who want a long-lasting, easy-to-install liner for custom fire pits will appreciate this SoulMate insert. It’s ideal for people creating a backyard focal point, hosts who run frequent outdoor gatherings, campers seeking a reliable portable ring, and anyone wanting cleaner burns and safer containment of embers without a permanent factory-made pit.
