Porcelain Gas Grill Heat Plate
This porcelain-coated steel heat plate is an OEM-compatible replacement for Uniflame gas grills. It installs directly above the burner to protect it from drippings while improving heat retention and cooking performance. The plate restores even heat distribution and reduces flare-ups during grilling sessions. Designed as a direct-fit part for straightforward installation.
Replaces Uniflame Part 97331
This heat plate replaces Uniflame part number 97331 along with numerous cross-referenced part numbers including 7GBC730W, 5515167, 8GBC621CRC, and 5507319. It addresses rusted, warped, or corroded original plates that cause uneven heating and inconsistent grilling results. The upgrade is worth it when your existing heat plate shows corrosion damage or fails to distribute heat evenly across the cooking surface.
11-3/4 by 21-5/8 Inch Coverage
Measuring 11-3/4 inches by 21-5/8 inches, this heat plate provides coverage for the burner area on compatible Uniflame grill models. The porcelain coating offers corrosion resistance for extended service life under high-heat cooking conditions. It comfortably handles standard grilling duties including direct and indirect heat cooking methods. The plate runs out of effectiveness if the grill's burner configuration or firebox dimensions differ from the Uniflame 97331 specification.
