Heat Diffusing Plate, Second Size

A burner that runs too hot can turn sweet candy syrups or evening pots of rice bitter before the lid comes off. This heavy metal disc sits right between the burner and the pan to spread the heat across the entire base. We keep this second size in the WalterDrake pages for cooks who rely on their wider skillets and stockpots.

Even stovetop warmth

Direct flames or electric coils leave hot rings that catch thick gravies. The solid plate takes the flame first, holding the heat and spreading it smooth so foods simmer gently on lower burner settings.

Nonstick coated top

A dark, slick coating across the top wipes clean with a damp dishcloth after dinner. Spills that bubble over the edge of the pan lift away without hard scouring at the kitchen sink.

Wider cooktop fit

This version is sized broad to support larger saucepans, soup kettles, and cast iron skillets. The flat surface keeps broad cookware steady while a wooden spoon works around the rim.

Patience for sweet treats

Making caramel, melting baking chocolate, or cooking delicate porridge requires steady, low temperatures. Resting the pan on this disc lets a cook tend the batch without rushing to pull the pot off the stove.
