The shell of The Armadillo is constructed of reduced wall aluminum (RWA) & tempered alloy, which makes the product sun & heat safe up to 130 Fahrenheit (aluminum minimizes heat conduction). The shell becomes warm in extreme temperatures but is not hot to the touch, and can be picked up & held in temperatures (up to 130 F). We do not recommend using the Armadillo water hose in tempatures exceeding 130 Fahrenheit or other hot water applications.
