This cover is specifically designed for the Taylor Model 358 and select versions of the C723. Always verify the part number in your technical manual before installation. Is this a stainless steel part? Yes, the MET145 is fabricated from durable stainless steel to meet commercial food safety standards and provide long-term resistance to corrosion. Why is my drip tray overflowing despite having a cover? An overflowing tray typically indicates a worn rear seal or a failing shell bearing on the drive shaft. While the cover manages surface drips, consistent pooling suggests internal seal maintenance is required. This item is not eligible for free shipping.
