The Bake-O-Glide® Induction Hob Protector Circles give you spot protection for individual cooking zones rather than the full hob. Because only the zones you use are covered, the rest of the hob stays clear and visible, which keeps touch controls and displays easy to reach and gives the hob a sleeker look than a full mat. The flexible, non-stick silicone coating helps reduce pan movement, particularly with heavier cookware such as cast iron, while allowing efficient heat transfer during cooking.
Also available in our full-hob Original, Edged, and Solid designs.
All four protectors are built on the same heat-resistant silicone coated fabric. The difference comes down to the edges and the surface, how much spill protection you want on top of everyday scratch protection, and how much of the hob you want covered.

Place a Bake-O-Glide® Induction Hob Protector Circle directly onto an induction hob cooking zone. The protector is designed to be used while cooking on induction hobs and allows heat to transfer safely while helping to protect the glass surface beneath.
Unlike the full-hob Original, Edged, and Solid designs, the Circles are sized to sit on a single cooking zone. This keeps cookware positioned within the heating zone and maintains continuous conductivity between the hob and the pan when used correctly.
Leaving the rest of the hob uncovered keeps any touch controls, displays, or zones set into the glass clear and easy to reach, and suits anyone who only ever cooks on one or two rings and would rather not cover zones they're not using.
That's the trade-off with spot protection: you get a clearer, less cluttered hob, but anything outside the circles, spills, dropped utensils, scrapes from pans sliding across, is landing straight on the glass. If you'd rather have the whole surface covered, the Original, Edged, and Solid protectors all cover the full hob.
If required, the protectors can be trimmed carefully with scissors.
Do not use on ceramic, gas, radiant, solid-plate hobs, or induction hob converter plates. If the cooking zone glows red or orange when switched on, it is not an induction hob and this protector is not suitable.
Using this protector on a non-induction hob is misuse and will not be eligible for a replacement.
The Circles are quick to keep clean. There are three simple ways to do it:
Allow the hob and protectors to cool completely before cleaning.
For longest life, hand wash rather than using a dishwasher. The protectors can be used on both sides and stored rolled or flat once clean and dry.
For a spotless finish, many customers also use HG Hob Cleaner Extra Strong, Mr. Eco Cellulose Sponge Cloths, and the Spontex Microfibre Kitchen Cleaning Kit.
