Here’s a sad story. It’s the 4th of July (or some similar weekend barbeque outing), the family and friends are gathered, the cold beer is flowing, and the good times are rolling. Your hefty plate of St. Louis style pork ribs is ready for the smoker. You and a buddy or two are huddled around your smoke pit, waiting for the beautiful faint hiss of raw meat hitting a hot grill. You go to turn on your grill, and then suddenly it happens: nothing. Not a thing. Your grill doesn’t light. You try and try again to fire it up and, still, nothing. Confusion turns into annoyance. Annoyance quickly gives rise to a subtle rage. The rage grows and grows, like the throbbing of a tumor inside of your brain about to burst. Why won’t the grill light? Everyone’s standing around, snickering, muttering. The barbeque appears to be, as the kids say, doomed.

Don’t allow for your barbeque to be ruined on account of a faulty fuse or a burnt out hot rod. Whether you constantly use your Traeger smoker (or any other grill from that same brand) on a nightly basis (as you oughta) or you’re simply a once-in-awhile type griller, parts are going to need replacing. Whether it’s from overuse, a short out, the weather, or simply a dud part, replacements are a necessary evil. In fact, hot rods need to be replaced every couple of years due to burnout. A quality hot rod should last you several years but sometimes people fall victim to a price they cannot refuse. And while Houseables believes in supplying you with the best product at the lowest price possible, some companies/sellers are more comfortable with shysty practices. And that’s how you get trapped into spending money on an inferior or altogether faulty replacement part. Don’t settle for cheap junk.

Product Features

• KEEP YOUR GRILL GOING ALL YEAR LONG: 3″ x ⅜” high density cartridge heating element replacement. An identical match to the OEM hot stick. Compatible with all Traeger grills except for their PTG model. When your current hot rod shortens or burns out, this replacement part will ensure that your grill continues to operate effectively.
• QUICK CONNECTING: 200 watt/120 volt, 24″ wire lead hot rod goes into the base of the firepot. Designed for a quick connection, once properly installed, reigniting your grill will be as simple as flipping a switch.
• EASIEST WAY TO BBQ: A working hot rod does all the hard work for you — quickly lighting your wood and keeping the fire lit for quality grilling. Your grill simply won’t work without a functioning hot rod. Don’t settle for lighter fluid or propane torches that sacrifice the flavor quality of your grilled meats, smoked ribs, and other barbequed mainstays
• INSTALLATION TIP: Sometimes, the burnt out hot rod may be difficult to remove. Cutting off the end with a pair of diagonal pliers as swelling often occurs. Taping a wire onto the electrical connector before removal may also make the entire process go smoother. For best performance, only ⅛ to ¼” of the wire should be visible once the replacement cartridge is in place
