Weber Parts Deals

These aren't super cheap, but you get two sets of stainless steel pins for the price of one set of OEM Weber ones. I ordered these for my personal use as I'm tired of rusty ones that I have to keep cleaning up to look nice. https://www.amazon.com/dp/B0FLXHHVYP?tag=tvwb-20

I have always thought someone should make this. I saved for now. I am very interested to hear what you guys think after receiving them.
 
I was actually quite surprised when I went to the Ace hardware for a set of SS bolts for the rotisserie mount.... 1/4-20x1/2 bolts were like a buck each --- I wasn't expecting them to be that much. Seems like anything made out of SS is 5X the price of normal hardware.

You probably can if you just look for the right sized ones that don't specifically say they are for Weber grills.

I’ve actually looked for stainless cross drilled clevis pins for a ridiculous amount of time. I admittedly get frustrated with the internet and will cut bait after 15-20 minutes, but finding these in the same length, and girth (in SS) has been super frustrating.

Then I don't feel too bad about buying these. Besides, I'm not going to put them on flip grills anyway.

I get the buying local and supporting the brick and mortar guy, but they really should not cost that much.

I usually buy mine at Ace hardware too. I honestly can't remember how much they were. I usually reuse most of a grills original bolts anyway so I'm not buying them in bulk or I would just get them on Amazon. I do always replace the cook box bolt and nut with stainless ones, and sometimes frame bolts if I have a loose frame to try and tighten it up.
 
It’s been handy to have some spare nuts and bolts around. I have a little bin full of rehabbed grill hardware. The last Genesis Gold I did I replaced all the hardware with stainless. Adding maybe $8 to my cost (the tank bumper bolts were $3 of that. Looked so nice though.

Another super deal for the older Silver/Gold/Platinum B and C grill as well as the Genesis 1000-5000 grill as well as the later Spirit E3xx grills.
I doubt you will see 9mm SS solid rod grates for $40 again. Customer reviews say they are non-magnetic. I have never owned a set, but I just ordered one. If it doesn't meet my specs it goes back. If it does, I may have to dig down and find a few bucks for some more.

OK guys, I finally got my set of grates after a couple days shipping delay. I have to say they are VERY impressive and way worth the $40 sale price. According to my measurements, they are essentially identical to the Quilmetal 9MM grates and a close second to the RCPlaneburyer grates.

15 bars per grate
full 9mm solid SS rods.
They are non-magnetic except for the very end of each rod (likely due to being cut)
They are 11.22mm between rods
They weigh 8.45lbs per grate
They are a FULL 17.5" long which ensures that even on the most warped cook boxes, that you will have very little sliding around when cleaning.
If I have to knock them for anything, it is the ends of the rods are not polished and smooth. But, they are not sharp enough to injury someone. Very minor in my opinion.

Here is @Jon Tofte grates comparison to compare to this set.

The NEW CONTENDER

Ok, so I had the opportunity to purchase a set of the 9mm grates being offered by Qlimetal. I am not sure when these came out, but they are new to me. I know some of you are very interested in these since they bring dimension close to those of Dave Santana/"rcplanebuyer" grates at a very attractive price.

I have to say, that overall, I am very impressed. They are heavy, thick 9mm grates with no magnetic response. In all measurements they come out ahead of BBQParts.com and close to Dave's. Still, Dave has the best in my opinion. However, we have heard some uncertainty...

$40 guys. If you need a top shelf set of grates, now is the time.

I doubt you will see a deal like this again. Good enough for any keeper and priced competitively with way lesser grates you might use in a flip grill.

Thanks for posting the helpful pictures and specs, @Bruce :coolkettle: .
