Are both threaded coupling ends brass - the black color suggests it is plastic)

You're correct. The black is plastic; however, it's a very durable coupling.

On mine, the threaded part is brass. The plastic is is there to offer a better grip.

The black plastic is on the exterior. It has 3 spoke-like protrusions that make it easier to twist the coupling on and off. Inside, however, the part with the actual thread is brass.

The black is plastic. I have used mine many time and have never encountered any problems. Very satisfied.

Hard to tell. The thread is actually composed of spring wire wrapped in plastic.

Yes, not metal, but works fine. But don't buy any other connectors, for example "People who bought this also bought..." and they show you a brass hose connector, I bought it, it didn't fit, my bad, so I have another connector in my plumbing tool kit!!

They are plastic, we bought the black ones and you can't tell any difference where the metal ends and the plastic begins. Very easy to install, took about 2 hrs.. but didn't seem like it. Good buy.

you should have three threads. I would bet however this handle works fine with two. Mine came with three. I don't recall if they were all brass threads or if one was plastic. After having all that said, I put three of the same bolts in the handle.

NO, it is a 1/2"IP female thread. Works and looks great. I use a female copper fitting and then adjust to the final wall thickness with a brass nipple.

Its is threaded and is a great replacement for the original.....I put this in 3 years ago now and not a single problem

Yes, they are threaded for inside and outside attachment! The plastic attachment on mine broke, and this was the answer. They work great!

Yes. It is a quality, commercial-grade heavy-weight aluminum item. The threaded part appears to be brass. There is also a rubber-type washer.

The tips are brass but yes the actual restrictor in the center is plastic. These are a good basic replacement but probably ideal for heavy commercial use.

yes, the red end you see in the picture is actually a screw in bolt (hand tight) awsome product highly reccomend.

No they are plastic. They work really well! Pay attention to how the old ones are threaded and just do the same.

Yes. It may look like a female thread because it comes with a protection cap. Unscrewing and removing the cap reveals the male threads.

Ends are plastic, this is a pretty well made replacement stair set, only problem I had was my old bolts were not quite long enough. I think this seller offers bolts, if so I recommend getting them if you order these stairs. Hope this helps you. Good luck. Dave W.

My adapters were brass. The nylon was to be used as a gasket if you needed a gasket.
