Default Boiler flue cage - where to buy?

Hello -

The exhaust pipe from my gas boiler (I think this is called a flue) passes
horizontally through a wall to the outside. There's a sort of steel cage
fitted to the outside of the wall, presumably to stop people getting burnt
by the hot gases. The "cage" is rusty and needs replacing.

Can anyone tell me what the proper name for this is and where I can buy one,
preferably on-line?

I've done some searches for plausible names, but haven't found anything yet.

Thanks

commonly referred to as a chip-pan basket! ask in any plumbers merchant and
they'll know what you want
