50 degrees? How do your oven knobs even get that hot? Mine don’t change temperature at all, always room temperature. If your oven knobs get recognizably warmer (yet to spend of 50°) something seems to be awfully wrong with your oven!
Depends on the type of filament used and temperatures that are actually present at the knob. I would say no since the temperature required to melt (or warp) the knob would have to be high enough to cause some pretty severe burns if you touched it with your hand. if the knobs on the oven/range are getting that hot, there is a lot more to worry about here than the knob melting.
Wouldn’t that be susceptible to melting due to oven temps? Or is that probably made from a higher temp filament?
What’s the melting point of the regular filament? You’re supposed to touch the oven knobs it so it’s probably not much higher than 50 degrees.

Glass transition temp of PLA is around 55-60C - that’s when it starts to get malleable. I’d be pretty surprised if the oven knobs get that hot.
