What is the sport cap made of? It says silicone valve, but is the other part plastic?

Yes, the green is plastic, the same as the last version, but the black valve is a squishy but firm silicone. If you are considering getting this I HIGHLY recommend it. The first iteration of this cap was horrible. This is a solid improvement.

I bought these for my son, so I have no first hand knowledge. Jusr asked him...he says the valve is Presta.

The cap does not have stainless steel parts. it is plastic with a silicone band.

It is entirely metal cap and body. The only plastic is the refill. Thanks for asking, hope this helps, and have a nice day/evening (depending on where you are and the time of day/evening).

As Joe Pesci says in My Cousin Vinnie, if both parts of the valve were ceramic, "it wouldn't hold water." Half of the valve is ceramic. The other half, the part that slides into place to cover the hole in the ceramic, is made of a semi-flexible material which appears to be silicone. Perhaps a better question would ask whether or not that silicone is food grade. I'd give it a 98% chance of being food grade, but perhaps an email to Bonavita is in order. Good question!

Who the hell would know the answer to this question?!? It's plastic, I can say, and much better than the cheap metal (tin?) caps that usually come with a growler. Seal is much tighter and won't bend or rust over time.

Just looking at the valve, the nut appears to be stainless with a nylon insert. If the nut rusts, replace with a brass nut...in any case, this valve will last a lot longer than any plastic valve.

The tank is plastic and the center section is aluminum. This radiator looks just like the factory OEM, original equipment manufactor. As a technician, i highly recommend this part.

Plastic silicon. Which is one of the safer plastics.Even w/o the little clear sheild on top it doesn't seem to leak much.

Black plastic screw-on cap with removable whitish rubber/silicon type plastic on inside to make a great seal

The valve is plastic. Mine has worked perfectly, but it is placed in an area where there isn't direct contact with the engine block or exhaust. Your fuel line is rubber would also melt is placed on the engine or exhaust. So, it should be no problem to find a good spot for the valve. Besides it works as well as the tougher metal version and costs much less.

It has a rubber part inside the head. You have to unscrew the mountain fue and then turn this rubber adapter in order to change the valve.

Hi Linda,The black plastic is a "T" filter housing. One end is a blank cap for filter changing, one end connects to your water source, and the last one is the outlet for filtered water to the misting system.

Cap is a hard plastic with a rubber gasket. It fits tightly and stays tight. I can lay the bottle on its side with no worries.

The looped cap that comes standard with the Hydro Flask is made of all plastic with a silicone o-ring gasket/seal. They also sell a flat-top cap that is made of both plastic (the top part), and stainless steel (the bottom part that screws into the bottle), this also has the silicone o-ring seal/gasket.

The valve is red in color and should be in the box or wrapped up in the tube somewhere. It screws into the tube under the round cover between the headrests. the cover has velcro holding it down. The red cap has the valve built into it. you will also need a pump of some sort to fill the tube. I bought the pump that is made by Airhead.

Unfortunately, no, the actual drinking part is made of a hard plastic :( I was also disappointed in that. The piece that fits inside the drinking spout that regulates the flow of liquid does appear to be made of a silicone type material, but could also be made of plastic, I am not sure on that piece.
