First aid Made Feb 11, 2015, sent to the company Feb 23, 2015, published by CPSC Mar 10, 2015
The product, in the report: Sealing Iron - used when constructing model airplanes and other model items.
I recently purchased and used a Monokote/Top Flite (brand) Sealing Iron, which is typically used with constructing model airplanes. The iron has a temperature dial which is labeled from Low to Hot and the iron can reach temperatures of 395 degrees (per the box labeling the iron came in). After using the iron for about 15 minutes, I went to turn the temperature down/off and I burned my fingers on the temperature dial. The dial was EXTREMELY HOT, likely well over 300 degrees. It seems that the dial should not get hot, as it appears that it is intended to be used while the iron is being used. There are no instructions or information that warns not to touch the dial while the iron is plugged in and being used.
