I know the outer case is plastic. But is the index that actually holds the bits made of metal?

It is made of hard plastic like the case. To hold all 29 bits, there are 3 index that swing open using the same hinge as the case cover. I should add that these bits perform amazingly in wood, plastic, and steel.

bit holder is plastic, but the plastic of the case and holders are high quality plastic and probably hold up better than i fit was metal. plus it wont damage the edges of the bits.

Entire case & index is plastic, but seems to be very well made. Metal hinge pin is common to case & 3 sections for bits

Hi yes it is most defiantly metal and swing out same way as book pages. and these drill bits are absolutely excellent I ordered three more sets after trying them out.

no it is not, it is bonded to the shell, which makes sense as there is leverage applied to the metal key from the plastic shell that over time, if not bonded, would come loose. Best. D

Pry bars are plastic and the drivers are metallic. Great combo for fixing any small electronics.

The extra bits will fit with the holder that comes with them. I was able to cram 2 holders into the case, a little bulky but it holds everything i need but the extender. (extender can easily fall out of the case)

The main body is extruded aluminum, but the ends are molded plastic which is colored to look like the metal. These end pieces are held in place by small Philips-head screws on the sides. I have four of these HD cases and really like them. If you also want a protective carrying case, be sure you find one that handles the length. They are about a quarter inch too long to fit well in the most common variety. Hope this helps.

Top 1/2 of connector is metal, the bottom 1/2 that fits around the stand is really thick heavy duty plastic... However I thought too that it was metal and had to take a magnet to it to see. This one isn't going to break on you though.

Sorry for the long response time, I just looked at it and it seems to be the same "metal" as the old one. I ordered this for my daughter before xmas but managed to find a loose screw in the HDD when I opened it up. It's still working right now so the parts I ordered are kinda just in "limbo" for now. I will update how the install went once I do it. Hope this helps!

The bit holder in the handle is magnetic so it holds the bits very securely. Even if it weren't magnetic, it's made so snugly that it's unlikely the bits could fall out easily.

Some parts are plastic, some are metal. I would say if you thought about it you could guess what's plastic and what's metal. Hint: the rubber is not metal; not silver, not gold, not iron, not steel, not even copper, or brass, but what about tin? No not that either.

I have the black one, and it appears to be metal. The case, as a whole, feels good and sturdy.

It's almost entirely plastic on the outside. Some of the internal parts are undoubtedly made of metal.

The one I bought came in a hard plastic case. nice case but not much extra room for bits and stuff

Everything appears to be metal. I was cautious about plastic units breaking, which is why I went with this one. So far, it has held up really well, and is very sturdy (and heavy). I could probably use it as a weapon in a pinch. :)

It is metal, but thin. It was strong enough for 6 keys, 1 regular and 5 small cart lock ones. I really liked this but like the other reviewer who answered below, the connection is what broke on mine, not the cable itself.

It's plastic. I've never seen metal laptop case. I don't think that would be too good for the electric components.

hello not really sure as I do use Torx and found the included bits useful as is, perhaps the seller or manufacture would know, BTW I often use these in tight spaces and on small objects like disc drive cases sorry could not directly answer your question, hope this information help, cheers

Yes-A nice plastic case. Ill sell the one I have cheap...I think it is hard to use and to see the numbers.
