HI group,
I have a pellet stove wherein I have repaired the fire grate annually. *Attached is a photo link of the grate.

Purchasing a new grate is to be avoided ($100 +). *My last repair used heavy nails for the grate elements. *Obviously they burn right through. *All comments on what type of metal I should be using would be appreciated. *Said metal should be easily obtainable. *Metal diameter from 3/16" to 1/4" should work well.

Could I cut stainless pieces from refrigeration grates or oven grates?

Thanks,

I'd try stainless steel but don't really know. I'm pretty sure those
grates are plated steel.
