Wood or plastic doesn't transfer heat as well as metal. If the handles were metal, you could not pick the pan up.
Why do most metal saucepans have non-metal handles?
Because metals tend to be very effective at conducting heat. As such a metal handle will tend to get very hot as the pan gets hot. Obviously this increases the risk to the user, so saucepans commonly have handles made of a material that is a poor conductor of heat.
What is heaviest nonferrous metal is?
Aluminium:Aluminium is a widely used non ferrous metal. It is Grayish-White in colour, soft and malleable. This non ferrous metal is conductive to heat and electricity. It is corrosion resistant. Aluminium can be welded but this is difficult. Special processes need to be adopted in order to weld it properly. Due to its light weight, it is used in the manufacturing of aircrafts and boats. Its other uses are window frames, saucepans, packaging and insulation, pistons and cranks.
