Direct Store Cast Iron Grill Grates for Coleman RoadTrip Swaptop LX/LXE/LXX — 2-Pack 12.9x12.4 in, Heavy-Duty Non-Stick

Heavy-duty matte cast-iron replacement grates designed to fit Coleman RoadTrip Swaptop grills (LX, LXE, LXX) — two 12.9" x 12.4" cooking grids that deliver even heat, long retention, and a lip to keep food from sliding off.

These Direct Store DC126 cast iron cooking grates are a two-piece solution made to replace or upgrade the factory grids on compatible Coleman RoadTrip Swaptop models. Each grate measures 12.9" by 12.4", giving 140 square inches per panel and 280 square inches total when both are installed. Built with a heavy inner metal core and thick crossbars, the grates hold heat well and produce clear sear marks while resisting damage from normal use.

How will these grates change my grilling performance?

The dense cast-iron construction stores and distributes heat more consistently than thin stamped steel, so foods brown more evenly and you retain heat when the lid is opened. Their heavier profile helps maintain surface temperature for better searing and consistent cooking across the cooking area.

• Improved heat retention and evenness across each 12.9" x 12.4" grate
• Thick crossbars create pronounced grill marks
• Lip at the outer edge prevents small items from slipping off
• Matte cast-iron stands up to repeated heating cycles

Are these grates truly compatible with my Coleman RoadTrip grill?

They are designed to fit Coleman RoadTrip Swaptop models LX, LXE and LXX and to work with Swaptop accessories. Always compare the listed dimensions and your original part before purchasing to confirm fit, since grill variations exist across model years.

• Each panel: 12.9" L x 12.4" W; combined length 25.8"
• Intended for Coleman RoadTrip LX, LXE, LXX Swaptop setups
• Two-piece design makes handling and storage easier
• Check your grill measurements before ordering

How do I keep these cast-iron grates non-stick and easy to clean?

Seasoning the grates before first use and maintaining that seasoned layer keeps food release efficient. Use a high smoke-point oil (peanut or grape seed), rub on the grates, and heat so the oil polymerizes; wipe clean after cooling and avoid prolonged soaking in water.

• Season with high-temperature oil and heat to set a non-stick layer
• Wipe away food residue with a cloth or paper towel after cooling
• For stubborn residue, use coarse salt as a mild abrasive
• Thoroughly dry and store in a sealed bag to prevent rust

What practical differences will I notice compared with original factory grates?

Compared with thinner factory grids, these cast-iron grates are heavier and retain heat longer, which improves searing and reduces hot-spot variance. The round-ended rods remove sharp edges so handling is safer, and the raised lip helps keep small items like shrimp or vegetables on the cooking surface.

• Heavier weight and superior heat hold for better sears
• Rounded rod ends prevent hand scrapes during installation
• Raised outer edge reduces food loss during flipping
• Designed for daily grilling tasks: bacon, scallops, veggies, and more

Who is this for: The Direct Store DC126 grates suit campers, tailgaters, and backyard cooks who own a Coleman RoadTrip Swaptop LX/LXE/LXX and want a tougher, heat-retaining cooking surface. They are ideal if you favor searing, want clearer grill marks, or need a more robust grate for frequent grilling. Confirm your grill’s measurements and model before ordering to ensure proper fit.
