Comparative warping of steel and cast iron under heat

I need to replace the 1/4" thick cast iron smoke shelf on my old cast iron stove.

It is exposed directly to the flames.

It is difficult to get a replacement casting.

I want to replace it with a piece of 3/8" thick piece of steel.

Will the thicker steel resist to warping under the heat as well as the thinner cast iron?

Thank you for your attention.
