Hey,
In general, metals feel colder or hotter to the touch than other materials at the same temperature because they're good thermal conductors. This means they easily transfer heat to colder objects or absorb heat from warmer objects. ... Thermal insulators like plastic and wood don't transfer heat as easily.
