I use this on a Lodge Logic Pre-Seasoned Cast-Iron 8-Inch Skillet and a Lodge Logic 10-1/4-Inch Pre-Seasoned Skillet

Handle sleeves this silicone LC one are a must if you ever use cast iron skillets. I use this silicone sleeve on my Lodge pans most often. It's pretty tight on the handles, which can make slipping it on a hot pan a bit of a chore. However, I typically remember to put it on before cooking.

This one has a distinct advantage over my cloth Lodge sleeve, as another reviewer noted. I can rinse the skillet without removing the sleeve in fear if getting it wet and burning my hand. The water instantly removed the cloth's insulating abilities.

The silicone can get quite hot, but if you use your skillets on a properly-sized burner, this shouldn't be an issue.

My favorite part about this sleeve is washing it. Rinse with soapy water and air dry; requires 20 seconds of hands-on work max. I'd recommend this sleeve to any fan of cast iron cooking.

I thought I could keep this sleeve on a pan handle to avoid burning. WRONG. If you keep it on while cooking, it gets as hot as the actual handle. So not to burn yourself, you must use it only when you need to grab the pan. But then it's a bit loose so you have to be careful not to drop the pan. I am not sure if there is a sleeve out there that does not get hot, but will keep looking.

I purchased these to use with my Lodge Cast Iron Skillet.They fit over the handle easy.Not an overly tight fit, they slide on and off easily.You can still feel the heat through the silicone, but it is not over whelming and you can still pick up the skillet.Much better than accidently touching a cast iron pan with nothing covering the handle.Good product, I am not aware ofbetter products out there, I would recommend this to someone using cast iron, as it helps you from accidently burning yourself and makes the pans more manageable.
