Charcoal bin on performer getting HOT on a high heat cook

[Grizz]

anybody worry about their charcoal bucket on their performer getting hot when they do a high heat cook?  I'm getting the kettle up over 450 and I just happened to feel the wall of the charcoal bin and it is HOT. enough so that I yanked the bag of big blue and pecan chunks out of there while I cooked my pizza.

Old style or new style? I've seen melted bins on an ss performer before.

Keep on eye on your lid bale rollers.  There are susceptible to melting.

I had taken mine on several 1000+ degrees rides,  never melted the bin.  modem performer

It's a 2015 performer.  Fortunately the lid bale rollers made it through...wish I could say the same for the pizza :-(

Yes mine are , looking for a fix that works better.

Thinking copper tubing. I nearly always set my lid on the ground so no worries of lid damage rubbing the copper. Mine lids not perfect by a long shot but it fits good

Wooden lid bale rollers are just the ticket for this fix.
