So you can pick them up without burning your hands
Handles in a car are made of plastic........ Love Handles are made cellulite
Wood or plastic doesn't transfer heat as well as metal. If the handles were metal, you could not pick the pan up.
insulator, a conductor is usually metal. thats why the handles of pots and pans are made of plastic and wood

Shotguns do not have handles. They have stocks and forends, and in some cases grips. These parts are usually made of wood, such as walnut, or plastic.
Depends on what they're made of, not what they are.Anything made of a conducting material is a conductor, whatever it is.Anything made of an insulating material is an insulator, whatever it is.Material properties - conducting or insulating - is more important than shape.Scissors are generally - but not always - made of metal.And metals are usually conductors, making the scissors conductors.But a scissor might have plastic handles. Plastic is usually an insulator, which would make the handles insulators.
They tend to be made either of metal or plastic.
Plastic conducts heat poorly, and it's waterproof. A plastic saucepan handle will allow the cook to hold the handle without using a potholder, and the pan can be washed in a dishwasher.
Handles are made of all sorts of shapes and sizes, and of many kinds of wood. The cheaper grades of file handles are made of soft wood. Chisel handles should always be made of hard wood. Apple wood is often used for firmer chisel handles. Socket chisel handles for heavy work are often made from hickory.ANS 2 -Many of my favorite wood chisels have handles made from 'easy to grip' rubberised composite materials. Most of these have the tang of the steel carried right through to the end of the grip. This enables the user to hammer if he really needs to ( on the odd occasion I do that, I always use a 'dead-blow' hammer.)
The blade is metal and the handle is usually either wood or plastic.
Metals are good conductors of heat, so the heat from the stove is easily transferred to the food in the pot. Handles are made of plastic because plastic is a poor conductor of heat, so that the heat from the stove is not transferred to your hand when you grab the handle.
So that they don't get hot and you can pick them up.
