Would like to start a thread about the various cooking grates and cooking grate accessories made by both Weber, as well as aftermarket grates sold to be used on the Weber. This information would be useful to have in the reference library. Please limit posts and replies to the subject matter and use PMs, or start a separate thread if you want to discuss information outside of the subject matter. Include model numbers and manufacturers where possible so that others will know where to source.
Thanks,

Here a a searing grate that came with a ss performer that I purchased off craigslist. Not sure if it is made by Weber. The center of the grate is cast iron in a rectangle pattern and is removable. The sides of the grate hinge upward to enable the addition of fuel while cooking. The cradle for the cast iron is recessed so that the cast iron bars sit level with the remainder of the grate:

I believe these are the part numbers for "standard" cooking grates from Weber:
Weber 7431 = Smokey Joe nickel no hinge
Weber 7432 = 18.5 nickel grate, no hinge
Weber 7433 = 18.5 nickel grate, hinged
Weber 7435 = 22.5 nickel grate, no hinge
Weber 7436 = 22.5 hinged nickel grate
Weber 3070784 = 22.5 stainless steel hinged grate
Weber 8835 = 22.5 nickel “Gourmet” hinged grate with removable round center
Weber 63039 = 26.75 stainless steel hinged grate

Winz, your steel grate with large rectangular cast iron insert is definitely a Weber product. Ramsfan & I each have one new in box. Ours came with a smooth cast iron griddle insert, but they were available from Weber with either the cast iron grate or griddle. Since then we have both sourced the CI grate inserts just like yours (it is readily available because the part is shared with several older gassers).

Well, I went back and got the griddle. Couldn't resist and picked up two more NIB wooden side tables and two of the old style tool holders. It was all retail, but these are some cool items that are NLA. I am sure I will visit the place when I need a grate or cover. I like to support these small shops.

Charcoal grate but I thought this thread would be a good place for them. Firestarters sit in the "V" I also find it interesting that there is a double rod to reinforce it.

Cooking grates with large "trap door" for charcoal:
Yeah, pretty sure it will fit.....can't see the name on there, but I've used a Kingsford's grill that's exactly like it & they're the same as Weber...........
It may also have one of those goofy grates on it ~~~>

Yep, looks like a weber cast iron. They must have used the same cast iron grate as was available for the weber gasser. Same piece I use in my kettle I took off my old silver B.

The Performer I have came with the CI Sear grate and grate holder, it was well used and the nickel plating on the holder was completely flaked off. I used a wire wheel brush to clean it up and sprayed it down with Pam. The grate holder as was the CI sear grate was discontinued by Weber, but I was able to snag one of 6 BNIB holders offered by a member on the TVWBB site years ago.

The porcelain coated CI grates from the Genesis B-C fit the insert so its good to go for any replacement grates.

Don't forget the center section of this grate fits an 18.5 perfectly. (At least it did in a trial-run at a MA meetup last fall.) It's like a two-for-one deal.

Much has happened since 2015 ^^.
In particular, two new companies have emerged offering stainless steel grates. Please refer to each respective web site and/or search threads on WKC for more information/current information.
Very special hat-tips to both companies here! To ABC, for offering grates helpful for their popular SnS, and to Killa Grills, for both their take on the "one-flip" style grate and for single-handedly helping keep alive the 26 flat top and SJP kettles, in a way that improves on the original grates.
Adrenaline Barbecue Company, http://abcbarbecue.com/product-category/accessories/
21.5” (advertised as “22”) Two-Zone Cooking Grate with EasySpin™, $79.95
26.75” (advertised as “26”) Two-Zone Cooking Grate with EasySpin™, $109.95 (for 2008-later models, i.e. NOT for flat-tops)
Killa Grilla, http://killagrilla.com
21.5” kettle
KG 7435, standard cook grate, $66.95
KG 7436, twin flip-up cook grate, $75
KG 7436 SNS, “SnS style” (single large flip) cook grate, $75
KG-9, Elevated Half Rack, $100
KG 7441, 17” charcoal grate, $53
Flat-top 26ers:

KG9245 (24.5" Cook Grate), twin flip, $100
KG8245 (24.5" Cook Grate), “SnS style”, $100.00
Others:
KG 7432, 18.5” kettle cook grate, $57
KG 7438, 17.88” kettle cook grate for pre-2013 Jumbo Joe (Smokey Joe Platinum), $68
KG 85041, 20.63”, lower cook grate for 22.5” WSM, $66.95
KG 63039, 25.5” cook grate for 26.75” kettle (2008-later), $110
-
I believe these are the part numbers for "standard" cooking grates from Weber:
Weber 7431 = Smokey Joe nickel no hinge
Weber 7432 = 18.5 nickel grate, no hinge
Weber 7433 = 18.5 nickel grate, hinged
Weber 7435 = 22.5 nickel grate, no hinge
Weber 7436 = 22.5 hinged nickel grate
Weber 3070784 = 22.5 stainless steel hinged grate
Weber 8835 = 22.5 nickel “Gourmet” hinged grate with removable round center
Weber 63039 = 26.75 stainless steel hinged grate
@Winz I'm going to add a couple more here,
Weber 80730 - 18.5 stainless steel hinged grate
Weber 7431 = Smokey Joe Silver/Gold/Premium nickel grate
Weber 8843 = 21.5 stainless steel GBS (thanks Jules V.)
And there's an SS version of the GBS for European 18.5" (47cm) kettles (part#??)

More 3rd party cook grates:
Pit Barrel Cooker Co. is now offering plated (not SS) hinged cook grates.
One is a "18.5" (17.5" actual) and the other is a "14.5" (13.5" actual), so they should be a match for Weber 18.5" and 14.5" grill or WSM applications. $18 and $15 respectively.
Note: What makes them different is that the hinge is at the halfway point on the grate.
Might be of interest if you're using Adrenaline's Slow ‘N Sear® Charcoal Basket in your 18.5 kettle, or if you want to try hanging meat and grilling other food at the same time in a 18.5 WSM.
