Are they insulated? I would like to use a pair for removing the steel front from electrical panels.

There is rubber around the handle, and the magnets are set into plastic. However, I have no knowledge of whether or not this would protect from electrical shock.

Use a Non-Contact Voltage Tester prior to touching any electrical component if in doubt

They are not steel... it's more like a pressed board material that is very durable. I really like mine.

I would find it hard to believe that Irwin would manufacture a tool set that contains "linesman pliers" and a 6" cutter...essentially an electricians tool and not provide for suitable insulation to prevent an electrical hazard. From the looks of the set, all of the instruments appear to be coated with the same insulatoer, sao i believe it is safwe to assume that the tools are "insulated"

they are steel, they have bolts that fit into the holes on the side. they worked ok, how ever i took them off because the one on the passenger side mounts to where it is not good to see. it puts it to far foward. and when you put the door back on you can not see anything out of this minor.

Sorry, Im not sure,if Im not mistaken they are attached to the chassis.I returned the item because when working it was too hot.

I think they'd be fine for gas or electric. I have an electric glass top and they perform beautifully!

NO They are made of rubber so they do not get hot. They are actually very flexible, easy to install. Really love them.

Yes they are fan cooled . I like to keep extra fuses for this around to . you can only get the fuses online even though they say you can find them in an auto store you can not.

They're well insulated....I use them to feed the fire in my wood burning stove. I imagine they would be fine in steam,at least for a short period of time. They are probably not designed for long exposure to moisture.

I don't actually see a question here. But yes, that's what they claim they are. However the gloves offer nearly NO insulation, if you grab cold metal with them on it will cut straight through the glove. I got some 3M motorcycle gloves with "thinsulate" that offered significantly better insulation for about 30 bucks. They're out of stock on Amazon, or I'd link them.

yes, they are well coated and everything. As a suggestion, try to keep the power cords perpendicular to the audio cords for best isolation.

I am unaware. I used them in the soffit of my Northern woods cabin. All types of weather no problems yet. They are not a sealed type unit. There may be some condensation concerns with the electrical light socket above the baffle.

A simple answer would be . . . ADEQUATELY. They definitely are not as "insulated" as a fully insulated cup, however, they do insulate better than your basic plastic or china cup.I sure hope this vague response helps.

I don't know. I use them in my closet as sorters. Hopefully, my closet will never get that cold!

This heater was installed by an electrician as part of a remodel job so I'm sure what 'insulators' and 'wire' you are referencing. I am not aware of any problems ... it seems to work fine.

I really don't know how its insulated, but it keeps coffee warm for a long time. the wife and I just love them. We keep them in our camper and have some for the house. don't leave home without them.

Not having stripped the insulation off the wire, I can not say for sure which they are, but I will say, I have used these a half dozen times, and have not had them overheat, which a smaller wire will do. They are 6 gauge wire.
