Built to outlast. Designed to perform.

Created by an aerophysicist with a serious love for BBQ, the Pyralit Hero Unit isn’t just another charcoal starter - it’s in a league of its own. Engineered for faster ignition, tougher builds, and cleaner burns, it heats coals in under 10 minutes and keeps going season after season.

Crafted from premium 316 marine-grade stainless steel with a solid hardwood handle option, every detail is built for real-world use - from backyard cooks to competition pits. Choose the clean, handle-free look shown in most photos, or add the assist handle for easier carrying and extra heat protection when lifting lit coals.

Zero fumes — no coatings, no paint, no zinc to burn off.

No rust, no flakes — nothing breaking down into your fire zone.
