What type of plastic is used to make the Kong EZ Collar?

The only plastic is the slide thing that tightens it down to fit the animal. It's made from fabric, which is why I bought this particular collar. My cat was way more comfortable after being spayed than any animal I have had to use a plastic collar on. Great product.

It was cloth with some plastic stiffeners running up the sides. It worked well the first week, but my dog was able to chew through the cloth and get his leg caught in the hole. He's a tiny Yorkie. This worked and kept him from chewing on his backend. I think it's a good product for a small dog.

it is a soft material (the blue part). really so much better than the stiff plastic

I have absolutely no idea about the type of plastic. I can tell you that it is very sturdy and durable. The add-on pieces were identical to the original pen pieces, so there was no change in the pen at all. I contained my dog in this pen, except for going outside a few times a day, for 3 months. He weighs 40 pounds. The pen is terrific; the add-on parts were necessary, as I needed a larger pen for him.

Yes, and it is food grade plastic. Which means it's the same plastic material used to ship large quantities of human food. I wouldn't these for my dogs if it was made anywhere else. Especially in China.

The one I purchased was poly plastic. I agree that this one looks like steel though.

Polymer I believe. They are definitely a plastic of sort but not that cheap China stuff. I am very happy with these grips.

I do not know what that is. PetSafe Extra Collar Receiver For Pawz Away Outdoor Barrier (white box only) This is the collar it is designed for though.

Yes, in the upper half is a collar (where the metal lower half shaft inserts) which is plastic. Mine is a couple of years old and shows no noticeable wear in that area. As noted, the connection is quick and easy with no noticeable stress being put on the coupler.

Plastic. You screw them in yourself by hand. (The black things in the picture are the screws)the only thing metal on the crate are the windows and door. My 50lb shepherd mix was able to chew through the window and got out.

The collar has outer fabric like tarp with blow tube inside the fabric. Very durable but the tube kept deflating to the point we could not use as he must have discovered a way to deflate. Resorted to plastic cone.

We modified a nylon web collar and it worked well. The plastic nylon can be melted with a hot nail to make the holes for the prongs.

Heavy duty plastic. We use it as a play pen for our puppy and have been VERY please with it. We got the one with the swinging door. It can be a hexagon or a rectangle and works quite nicely either way.

I'm not sure exactly what the material is, but it seems to be a heavy nylon. It's not wearing very well at the seams where the metal rings are. I have an English Springer Spaniel and the material is pulling apart.

I don't know exactly what it is made of (I threw away the packaging), but it has a rubbery consistency. It's definitely not hard plastic. My dog really loves to chew on rubbery toys because he loves to give them a good, hard pull and have them bounce back. He gets bored by plastic toys, but this one he loves.

Plastic and it worked great for about 5 years. Recently I used it to mix sausage balls and it broke. Probably a combination of age and a really thick mixture.

My dachshund chewed through the plastic collar once, I was able to find a long and narrow replacement collar at Petco.

I ordered two of these. They are both made from a sturdy plastic. I bought them for my cat who had arthritis in her legs. It's pretty strong even for a small dog. If you did not receive the plastic version, you should return it or ask for a replacement.

Sorry for this ridiculously late response. I don't know what type of plastic you're looking for. I compare this to the tall Tupperware pitcher that I ALSO have. It's a very durable plastic. It's probably best to CALL a phone number for Rubbermaid and pose that question directly to them.
