Does this timer have the steel or plastic enclosure?

Yes it is steel as the others have said but if you already have an Intermatic plastic case this unit will fit in it.

Steel. Not obvious from the Amazon specs is that there are several enclosure specs. According to Intermatic: ET11x5C is indoor metal; ET11x5CR is indoor/outdoor; ET11x5CPD82 is indoor/outdoor polycarbonate with clear cover.

This unit comes with a metal box that is recessed into the wall cavity by a rectangular opening that you cut into the wall. This unit was installed in 2012 and has been working excellent ever since. I wired it to a timer switch that goes up to 60 mins so the switch can be turned on to run the unit for a set time, and this unit has its own thermostat control setting. It has worked great in our kitchen ever since. - recommend it! -Alan K

This one is plastic. I have had it mounted for several months and found it very durable.

Yes. I have used both. That is the reason I choose this timer after reading reviews by other customers.

No, it's plastic without automatic timers or control of anything but keeping it in the bowl by the sides of the thing. What do you want for the money?!?

Yes it does...I unfortunately ordered one at the same time, so now the metal one is on...the plastic one is backup.

There are both. I think it came with a white plastic but metal ones can be ordered.

The outside casing is a hard plastic, yes. The rest is metal. Have used this heater for several years now. Love it! Just bought two more for this coming winter.

I heard that plastic goes with plastic best, this is a plastic fitting. This is a good timer but I don't think it would work for copper or any metal. But you could try it and if it doesn't work, return it. For metal fittings, I'd call a landscaper or plumber. I'm sorry I don't know if this would work. I hope it does for you, if you try it!

Yes it does. It's a metal shut off lever instead of plastic. Much better, works great, and rugged. Hope this helps

The body is steel, the housing for the resistance mech is plastic but the roller is metal.

Metal now. It was previously plastic, but they redesigned it. I bought the new (metal triggered) unit about a week ago. I recommend it without reservation.

Black plastic with the bottom stainless for heating element. It's a very quick heat but the timer has never "beeped"

It comes with the one gang specially cut wall plate for the timer. On the bright side, I use the timer in a chicken coop for the past two years which is very dusty and humid; the timer works like clockwork.

Yes, space age plastic. Stays a safe temperature on the outside. This is my 2nd Zojirushi rice booker (my first one is smaller sized) and I love the results of cooking with this appliance.

We have this particular model in our shop. It is rarely heated, and is located near a 12' garage door. So far it has stood up better than the digital timer that I replaced it with.

The dimensions of the timer are 5" wide by 8" high by 1 3/4" deep. By saying does it come in a box, if you mean does it have a door that conceals all of the control features, the answer is NO. This is strictly an indoor timer, super easy to program with a ton of features if you elect to use them. BEST TIMER I HAVE EVER OWNED.
