I have a Q120 and I was thinking of replacing the grates (there's some rust). I believe the original grates and the split grates fit the Q120. Are the new grates better?

The split grates have an extra support. Your older model does not have it.

G'day
Ask Weber and they will supply you with 2 small clips which will convert it.
I have a Q200 with the new split grills works like a charm and the thicker ceramic means no rust

When researching for the page below, I learned that all new Weber Q replacement grates come with support clips. At least that's the case for the U.S.

Thats interesting news. Any pics of this clip ? Course my grate will outlast me. No real rust issues. I keep mine clean and oiled.

Thanks for the help. After grilling, I try to burn off the food, brush the grates, and oil it afterwards, albeit somehow I always get paper towels stuck on the grates so maybe I don't oil things properly. Anyhow, just before grilling I brush the grates again. Would it be a good idea to just leave the food on the grates after grilling?

Wonder how the clips are used. Think I got it but been wrong before. I always just turn off the grill, spray with pam and thats it. Then later I clean the grate cold and then spray with pam. Easy cleaning, very little to no rust.
