AN UPDATE ON THE HOT ROLL STEEL GRATES

[Gary Armitstead]

We replaced our old steel grates in our coal-fired, Gene Allen mogul in 1982. The replacement grate was and STILL is a slab of inconel with the grates "burned" in by a graphite electrode on an EDM machine. The grates are over 32 years old and look like they are brand new. NO warpage whatsoever.

That's great Gary that you have access to all that space age material. Most of us don't have that advantage, so it's HRS for the poor folk.
