There is no one specific temperature that will cause one to suffer from third degree burns. This is because the severity of the burn is not only dictated by the temperature of the heat source, but also how a person is exposed (i.e. directly or through cloth) and how long the heat is applied. Even lower temperatures can cause third degree burns if a person is subjected to the heat for long enough. As a general guide, any temperature above 140 degrees will cause immediate third degree burns.
