It depends on the material. If a frying pan is metal (which it is, usually) then it is definitely a conductor. There are poor conductors:

  • Cloth
  • Paper
  • Wood
  • Plastic
  • Foam
  • Packing 'peanuts'
  • Sheets & Blankets
  • Rubber
  • Insulation
  • Ceramic

And Good Conductors:

  • Metal
  • Human beings
  • Wire
  • Other metal products such as steel

In the long run, yes, a frying pan is definitely a conductor of heat.

It should be made from an insulator, so that it slows heat transfer from the hot frying pan to the handle, and therefore, from the handle to your hand. Unless of course, you want to burn your hand. In which case, by all means, make the handle out of a conductor.
