The bottom grill of a 149 is made of thermoplastic.

Thermoplastics melt when exposed to heat. Thermoset plastics resist heat better.

You mentioned QL, I don't know if you are using a QL tractor.

The QL moves a lot of heat out of the grill, enough to sag/melt the grill out of a 149.

I wanted a brush resistant grill, I made one out of a piece of heavy steel shelving.



I might even paint a big IH into it!! Some day?
