    Hi all,

    I wondering if anyone has seen these for sale anywhere for a decent price, I mean below 10€ or so :rolleyes: Or anything similar but it has to be heat resistant.

    They're heat resistant rubber feet for the grate (pan stand) on the hob.

    I had the same problem, I couldn't find a supplier of the feet anywhere!
    In the end I used "instant gasket" from a motor factors, this is good stuff to use as it is heat resistant, critical when you consider where you are using it.

    All I did was to squirt a bit into the hole and mould it into shape and left it to set, not pretty but functional.

    thanks all for your advice ;)
    I went with Sugru, they sell it in woodies now.

    I've done full restoration of the hob grate and I'm very proud of the results. I used Oven Pride to strip all the grime and paint of the grate, washed, dried, sanded and finally sprayed with heat resistant paint for BBQs, stoves, grills etc - also sold in woodies. It looks like new now, pity I didn't take 'before' pictures.
