internals made from rubber, external made from metal. BTW this is an excellent stand, and the use the fact that the internals are from rubber to clamp sensitive parts such as aluminum suspension internals to service them. This is the best buy I had as far as bike maintenance goes

The crimp on the hose & portion that pushes vale in on a standard tank are metal. The collar that screws onto the tank is plastic.

The part that wraps around the metal ball head is plastic. It it were made out of metal, it would be too heavy for my monopod.

It's made from metal but it cannot be used on real one, even not on each airsoft gun such as CM035, so I returned this mount back.

The top of the clipper is plastic. The bottom is metal. This is an excellent clipper. It is heavy duty, and fits in the hand well.

Clamp. But the thing is chiply made: shakes terribly and broke at the nut after 1 month broke because of vibration (read: because chip plastic and bed construction). I woulnd buy it.

The clamps are indeed made of plastic, but are rather beefy in construction. They should hold up as long as they aren't run over by vehicles or clamped to exhaust manifolds or other very hot surfaces.

Hello. The whole thing is made of plastic, with the exception of the metal blade. It works quite well.

I posted a photo of my clamps, mine have, at the very least, a thick plastic shell. It is not the nice metal ones they show in the picture. I am not a fan of the plastic ones. They work well but I'm worried about durability and I feel I paid for the steel ones.

It appears to be metal or a very very heavy grade plastic. So far it has worked very well for me. I'm not disappointed in this purchase.

Metal now. It was previously plastic, but they redesigned it. I bought the new (metal triggered) unit about a week ago. I recommend it without reservation.

I purchased mine last spring and the handle was made of both metal and plastic. The piece you grip is plastic while the sides that go to the tool are metal. It also rotates easily around the tool which I thought would be a problem but it actually was really convenient I thought. I wouldn't hesitate to buy it again for the price, especially compared to name brand electric jackhammers. I've used it to rip up a basement floor, patio, and sidewalk. All with no issues. Sorry this is more info, I've just been really pleased with this tool.

Metal, the cylinder is made of plastic. Appears to be fairly sound. We use this every weekend since the purchase.Absolutely love the set.

It is made out of plastic. The only metal parts are the crank and the disks. All of the gears are also made of plastic. The one I purchased worked fine for a few times, but then one of my children cranked too hard and stripped the plastic gears.

It is metal, feels light like aluminum but is most likely some sort of pot metal. It is sturdy. There is a thin foamed protector taped to each half ( clam shell ) of the clamp. It's not quite canon quality but it is good quality, much cheaper then a canon mount if you can find one. I've been happy with it. I'll try to post a couple of pictures.
