For roasting veggies at high temp (400 - 500) will Silpat be better than these? Says 446F max.

The heat resistance of the mats should be similar so I don't think there is much difference.

I don't know what the highest temp it can handle but since this type of Dutch oven is used over an open fire 500F should be no problem. In fact it may even improve the seasoning.

I use it frequently at 300 -- no problem -- but haven't tried higher temperatures because I did not have good experience with another brand which claimed to be safe to 450.

I have used up to 400 degrees without the lid, of course, but if I had to advised I'd say not above 375 would be safer. I have noticed that there is a actually a 'melting' effect of the actual black tray when in the oven on such a high temp. Other then that, I love my Glad Cooking Ovenware...I buy them by the box load!!

Hi Joe. Well I just checked and I through my instruction away. I'm pretty sure I read up to 500 degrees. I have baked with mine at 375 degrees with no problem. Hope this helps, I really like mine.

I made pizza and baguettes on silpat (not silpain) and it was great. No parchment, no stone. Needed temps are not 500-550 F, but rather 250-260 C = 480-500 F I believe. I preheat oven to 575 F. By the time I put the baguettes in and deal with the steam, opening the door twice, the temp goes down 100 F very fast and slowly gets back up to 500 F which is enough time for the baguettes (15min) and not much of a stretch for the mat (480F)

I'm not sure but if you do, don't go above 350°. These liners ruined my roaster and I had to throw it out. They're terrible.

Hi Vero! Great question. Yes they will make it in a 460F oven temperature under normal use with a couple of points to keep in mind. We tested our mats at higher temperatures than 480F which is why we felt confident rating them at a top heat resistance of 480F. That being said, if you use them as an oven liner even at a temperature lower than 460F they will become damaged because they will be too close to the heating element of most stoves. Also, if the food you are cooking on them burns (for any reason food may normally burn in the oven) the mats will be damaged even if the temperature was below 460F. I hope this answers your question!

We really love roasted veggies. The Silpat works like a champ! I've roasted cauliflower, asparagus, okra, potatoes, sweet potatoes, and brussel sprouts. My favorite use it roasting tomatoes, tomatilloes peppers, garlic and onions for salsa. I have not tried meats, but should be great for ribs, etc. Hope this helps.

If they're raw in the middle at 375 why not turn the heat up a bit and make these at 425 :)

Depends on what you are baking or cooking. My oven goes as high as 500 degrees.

the highest temperature i have used them to make chocolate cubes was 350 degrees.But they should okay to @ 450 without any problems.

These are better for handling pot lids than pulling even the thinnest cookie sheet out of the oven. I would definitely not trust them up to 425 degrees much less 600!

i have used them up to 450 degrees.They are made of the same silicone that hot pads/mitts are made of - I believe that they can be used to higher decrees.

I have not cooked anything over 300 degrees but I think it will go up to 350 or 400. I try to keep the temperature at 250 most of the time.

Yes! I normally bake roasts at 500 F for a short period of time and have never had a problem when I've had to take the roast out to check it -- while at the 500 degree temp. Hope this helps. All I can tell you is that they are by Far and away the Best mitts I've ever used -- and I've been cooking and baking for decades!!! :)

I have not used it above 450 degrees Fahrenheit. I would not use it for cakes or chicken because the pan is not deep enough to hold liquid.
