Hi, are the gears metal or plastic?

It looks like the part on the attachment is metal but the part it fits into is a hard white probably plastic. It has a lot of power and so far I have been really satifsied.

Metal. BUT, they are a shiny finish rather than a matte finish like there other items.

I just checked my set and the pulleys are all metal no plastic to be found. Hope this helps

They don't seem to be aluminum, which would be a poor choice of material for gears that have to apply a good deal of force. I would guess they are steel. However, you may want to contact Fiskars direct if you are doubtful.

They are metal. When I received mine the screw and mounting block were missing so I had to return them.

They are plastic. I was in Kuwait when they broke so I didn't try. I wasn't bringing the bike or basket home with me.

The ones that came with my set were not plastic. I'm not sure of the metal makeup but I'm positive they were not plastic.

Body is metal and the lens are plastic. They are so far working well after several months.

Combination. The inside parts are metal, like the gears and such. The top is plastic.

They are plastic. There is no actual copper in them. The pepper mill has steel inside as part of the grinder. That said, they are pretty. I don't regret buying them.

The motor output connection and shaft are metal and the grinders themselves are plastic or Teflon.

They're metal. I would have guessed aluminum, but they're ferrous so probably some alloy.

The gears are metal. I have two Z-ACTO pencil sharpeners, one of which is the Teacher Pro Electric. With 26-27 students they last 2-3 years before the metal gears need to be replaced.

My husband bought these for a sales event. I'm sorry to say that he can't remember if they were plastic or metal.

Yes, everything is metal. I have not seen any plastic parts on this machine.

According to my daughter they are plastic with metal on them. This was purchased as a gift for my granddaughter :)

I am pretty sure it is plastic. They do look like metal and had to take it apart to really tell.
