Bag is awesome, there is not enough hear coming from a exhaust pipe to melt the composite material of the bag or ignite the canvas straps.

The bag is constructed of a "rugged Vinyl" My rack extends far enough and in angle upward from the exhaust so that this is not an issue.

They sent me the wrong size bag, so I'm not sure if this helps, but the material had a slite petroleum smell. I haven't used it, and I'm not quite sure if the materials are safe. I was even afraid to give it to my cats as a bed because of the smell.

It sounds like the bag is metallized mylar: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Metallised_film#Manufacture

The construction appears to be a composite material, along with plastic and rubber components. The metal appears to be where the locking mechanism is and the hooks that attach under the trunk. The only pieces that were not durable were the Saris plastic labels on each end. The glue would not hold them on, instead they curled up so I removed them so I wouldn't lose them. Other than that it appears very durable. I have had it in the rain and appears to show no rust at all.

I believe this bag is made of a heavy canvas. It is very durable and I am impressed with the quality.

yes. mine did with the set-up in 'bought together' on a 2015 forester. i will be buying a new bag (bag is awesome, minus the melting, which i am not blaming on the bag) and building a wooden corner out of (probably) 1"x8"s to absorb the heat from the exhaust. straps were an issue on the corner with the exhaust, too. keep them clear of it.

It is a heavy canvas type material with a rubberized outer coating. It is weather resistant. It does not zip closed but has heavy duty locking clips to hold it together. It is a good bag.

Seems to be made of a variety of fabrics - the Swiss Gear Backpack Features says: "breathable fabric".I really love it, especially the padded shoulder straps.

It's some kind off man made nylon-type material. Mine completely broke so I no longer have it. I totally overloaded it one day and it gave up on me. It was OK till then

It's a kind of polypropylene, or like, material. It's very thin and while it hasn't ripped or torn in the months we've owned our cart, I don't expect that it would hold up to much abuse. Also it is not water resistant. It's basic function, as far as I can tell, is to just keep what you're carrying from sight.

I'm not sure what your question is , but the bag I received has started to fray at multiple seams. I would not recommend.

Very doubtful. The bag seems to be made of the same material as a Zip-Loc bag and I'm reasonably certain it would melt if heat were applied to it.

The black tube you see is made of pliable rubber. I use it to dry my motorcycle.

It is made of plastic. I use it to transport mixed thinset for tile installation with no problem. I agree with William, forget the bag, just sell the cart.

There are not any tags present to indicate the origin of the material, but I cannot see any evidence of animal remains in the makeup of the bag. The outer shell is a canvas material, and the bag is lined with an apparently water resistant material (reminds me of thick tent material. The straps are of the woven variety, fixtures are metallic, and zippers are flexible plastic. No leathers, furs, teeth, bones, etc.

I'm not sure of the material, it has hooks that attach under the hood, my hubby like it but he don't use it much on his car bcus at a certain speed it flys up, trying to figure out something to secure it better wen driving, I hope I was helpful
