RE: OSHA Surface Temp
You will need to look at your particular situation and determine what the risks are to your employees. In my professional opinion, anything over 150 F should not be touched by unprotected human hands. Anything over that, and I would provide first, engineering controls to restrict the access of a person from contact with the surface. Second, if access cannot be restricted, limit the access to as little as possible. Lastly, provide PPE(hot mill gloves, arm guards, face shields, etc.) to the employees who have no other option but contact with the material.
