I have working side pipes that would be instant no skin if touched and I fitted them with heat shields after a little girl burnt her leg on one pipe at a kids with cancer charity day
heat shields:-
I have since redesigned the side pipes and done away with the heat shields as they are no longer necessary
Now you can put your hand on my pipes and you just pull your hand away saying jees thats hot but no blisters or skin loss.
this is how the pipes are constructed now as there is a quarter inch air gap between the inner and outer pipes.
