stainless steel. Not plastic. I have had them for 2 years. Strong steel fingers hold them on tight. I like them.

The rings themselves are made of aluminum. the screws are steel. Both were tested with a magnet.

They are Completely stainless steel, no plastic anywhere. I'd guess they were addressing peoples fears regarding BPA items, not implying there was plastic involved in the product, making a strong statement that they are do Not contain BPA. They are what the picture on the left shows, totally stainless steel.

They are Nylon O-Rings From what i can tell (white plastic) and they do Not hold up to PB Blaster and such materials well. I've ordered 2 and they both failed at the neck after putting PB blaster in them.

Plastic. I doubt you can find metal knobs. These worked well for me. Look nice

Metal. They were of excellent quality. I ended up buying 100+ to use at my wedding.

They are plastic. I have had this for a month now with no problems at all. I don't crank down on the fittings when I tighten them however

I think they are stainless steel. Very thin. Work well for my GF English muffins. I agree with previous comments regarding washing & drying by hand.

I have them but how would you tell??I would guess at brass plated steel ( clever Mr Hurst with the magnet! )

I know the ones I got are stainless steel, however, I admit, I don't know if they chrome plated over stainless? I don't "think" they do, so my assumption is that they are polished stainless.

As far as I know they are solid stainless steel. I clean them with lots of force and no sign of anything coming off or loose, They are welded together very solid. We are very happy with them. Like I said we clean them often after use and they come out looking good. Also they are heavy, don't imagine they are wrapped.

Most answer here say stainless steel, but a couple chrome plated, which one is it?

The shower curtain rings are completely constructed of stainless steel and brass. There are 2 main types of stainless steels, austenitic and ferritic - ferritic being generally magnetic, while austenitic stainless steels are typically not. Either way, due to steel's chromium concentration, they are known for their generally excellent corrosion resistance.

No plastic ring , no plastic on immersible stick at all. Stainless steel up to and over the top base, sturdy plastic housing up to where you push to use. Hope this helps.

They are silver probably stainless steel. I am using mine for marine use on fresh water. It may be different for salt water.

I'm looking at them, and I'd say they are plated. Way too shiny. A magnet DOES stick to them, also.

They look like brass but I just checked with a magnet and they attract to it so they must be plated steel.
