Hi, The straps connector, is it plastic or metal?

The strap connectors aren't metal. They seem to be a type of impact resistant polymer. I have had mine for 4 years and they haven't broken at all during hunting seasons, some construction and air soft games.

It is plastic but looks like metal. Can't really tell it's plastic by looking at it.

Its plastic with metal. First time out with it cought a 27 lbs yellow tail. Very smooth

The only metal part, that I can tell, is the spring. Everything else is plastic but it's very durable plastic.

Hisorry - its a metal one (the other one that I bought was made of nylon maybe and it disconnected from the hook after a week)

The loops attached to the handle are metal but the shoulder strap snaps are plastic.

It is plastic. I bought 2 so I would have a spare when the connector on the shower head broke as my previous one did.

It's metal. I have used them for several months and no problems at all. I really like the quality of them. I have two.

It's plastic. And it's very secure. We use our "watch" for all kinds of activities and have never had an issue with the clip

The hooks on the straps are plastic, but the loops they attach to on the bag are metal.

There is a base plate that screws onto the bottom of the camera that is pretty secure. It is similar to the attachment you see on a scope or tripod. The connector between the base plate and the strap itself is metal and not plastic. I do make sure I keep the screw tight when I'm moving around a lots. I have not had any problems at all with it. It all works well with my shoulder harness for my binoculars as it fits over/under that harness nicely.

Yes, it's plastic. I've had two for several months with no reliability issues.

Its plastic. And very weak. The metal only goes into the plastic handle for about 1/2". Mine snapped in half, I just posted a couple of photos.

It's plastic, pretty much junk. The plastic covers at the joint fell off within a couple of days.

It's mostly heavy duty plastic but the movable part of the clip is metal. I really don't use the strap and cannot vouch for it during use. However, it does feel strong to me.

It is some kind of nylon. The connections are not that great. So don't get two and try to connect them. They tend to leak where they connect.

Appears to be a non-slip matte finish plastic. My guess is they have a metal core. Note: Handles are smaller than they look in the picture because the jump-cable is very slender.
