Are the rubber handles heat resistant? Meaning if I threw this in the oven will it melt, at upto 250 degrees fahrenheit?

I have not tried what you ask but I would guess that the rubber handles are not heat resistant. I did not see anywhere on the product that the handles were silicon/heat resistant. You could send an email to Bright Springs and ask.

It is silicone, so it would withstand heat; however, the handles on the smaller measuring cups are heavier than the cup itself and tend to tip, so if you are setting them in the oven, I suggest you place them in a pie plate or other small baking dish in case they tip.

I think the silicon is safe to 400 degrees, but it has been a while since I read the instructions that came with them. I haven't tried putting them in the oven myself. But I put them in the microwave all the time. They are designed to vent specifically for that purpose. I love these for freezing leftovers for lunches.BTW, someone else posted that the lids are rubber. That is incorrect. The reason I purchased them was because the lid was silicone.

I personally have never used mine in the oven but the instructions say that these pans are oven safe up to 180 degrees Celsius. The ones with the metal handles(not the black) may be different.

The handles are hard plastic. You'd have to check with Fagor. I'm not sure they'd melt , but might give off toxic fumes. Regulator would melt and be ruined, I'm pretty sure.

According to their brochure it is oven safe and the handle can withstand up to 350 degrees F. I have not tried using it in an oven.

No, because the handles have a coating on them that will be damaged by high heat.

My Vollrath set is entirely in stainless steel, including handles so I suppose everything to be oven-proof but I have not tried it.

That is a great question. I have not used it in the oven, as yet, and I have a brother who has two of them and he has not used them in the oven either. I think they are supposed to be oven safe to a certain temperature and beyond that, the plastic handle can melt. I usually use iron skillets and glass casserole dishes in the oven.

Farberware handles are oven-proof up to 350 degrees but they do lose their shiny appearance in the oven and become dull plastic.

I've never used these pans in the oven. However, the handles are made of material that would probably sustain oven heat.

I believe Austin Ed had the best answer to the question he asked. The pans with the red temperature indicator have the softer feel handle (silicone) handle and the the literature (tag) included with mine said they were oven safe to 450 degrees. I tried it with a recipe that called for 425 in my gas convection oven without a problem. I'm less sure about the hard plastic handled T-Fal pan but I don't think they would mislead you if it weren't true.

Probably at lower temps. I wrap the handles with aluminum foil to prevent them from melting.

Wooden handles need to be wrapped in tin foil in the oven. Plastic fittings on tops are safe to 320* F. Straight from owners leaflet.

These pots and pans are not designed to be put in an oven. They have rubber on the handles. They are however a great deal for a set of pots and pans.Thanks xxxj155

I believe the handles are oven safe to lower temps, but they are designed for waterless cooking on the stovetop. Putting them in the oven would defeat the purpose of these pans.

If your oven temperature exceeds 375 degrees for more than 30 minutes the possibility of melting increases. I've done it and it is now partially stuck to my stove. Not sure why it isn't designed to withstand what could be considered an average oven temperature. Plastic will only withstand so much heat so it may be wise to see if there are non plastic ones availabie. So, yes, it will melt.

I have not used this in the oven. I think it would ruin the plastic handles. Google it before you try it...
