The Deep Grooved Top Bar Double Coated Plasticell Brood Frame 9-1/8” is a sturdy component for your deep hive bodies that encourages bees to build straight, uniform comb. You will appreciate how the double layer of beeswax helps the colony accept the plastic foundation much faster than uncoated alternatives. This frame slides into place without sticking, making your inspections easier when you need to check for the queen or evaluate the brood pattern. It withstands the force of a honey extractor, so you won’t have to worry about foundation blowouts during a heavy harvest. Using this setup ensures your hive stays organized and manageable throughout the peak foraging season.

Additional Information
When checking your deep boxes, try not to leave these frames sitting in direct sunlight for too long to avoid softening the wax coating. If you notice the bees are slow to draw comb on a new frame, you can lightly spray the surface with a bit of 1:1 sugar water to get them interested. These plastic frames are particularly helpful for new beekeepers because they don’t require the delicate assembly of wax foundation and wire. This choice also makes cleaning up old comb much easier, as you can simply scrape the frame down and reuse it after a quick wax refresh. Always check that your frames are pushed tightly together in the center of the box to maintain proper bee space.
