Good conductors of heat are materials that allow heat to pass through them easily. This is because the atoms in metals are packed more densely and can transmit heat vibrations more readily. Most non-metallic solids are said to be good insulators, having extremely high resistance to the flow of charge through them. Copper and aluminium have the highest thermal conductivity while steel and bronze have the lowest.
