Is the pin metal as well or is it plastic?

Yes the entire pin is metal does not break keep in mind the are not big pins so if you have thick hair buy bigger ones but for small sections they give you lots of pins

The poles are metal. The connectors are plastic. So far, it's been very durable. I use this many times a year.

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

The tips are brass but yes the actual restrictor in the center is plastic. These are a good basic replacement but probably ideal for heavy commercial use.

The end of the handle is plastic as is the clamp turner, but the rest is metal. This hasn't been a problem so far.

I had a problem with the threaded holding pin breaking after a while, normally these are case hardened pins and the first one I've ever had break. I replaced it myself and have had no problems since, maybe just a bad pin or metal?

The arm and mounting bracket are metal, just he head is plastic. Seems to work well.

Plastic gears they work fine though. The spaces to adjust are large, so it makes pinning a bit hard. It's worked good for what I've done so far

As far as I can tell, it is metal. We have had no problems with it in the past year. The on/ off lever works like it was new and the stream/ spray switch on the head is still going strong.

It is a type of plastic. I don't think it is ventilated or has removable pins.

It is some kind of metal not as heavy as military kind but better than plastic. Used it twice works well not bad for beginners (bought for my brother) learning how to use with a map.

I did exactly the same with a metal pin. BD headquarter ran out of the metal pin this summer and I got a free one from my BD local center.

The handle and the rod are stainless. The tube, and the top and bottom rings are aluminum. The foot of the jack and the bracket at the top that the lever attaches to is plastic. Both are pretty sturdy.

The one I have is metal or type of alloy. It seems solid. I keep it outside with a spare house key in it and It is holding up well. The black rubber flap protects the combination lock.

These work the same way. You just put the metal end of the pin into the slot that is in the plastic part.

The buttons are metal but the backs with the pin are plastic. The backing is a plastic circle with a safety pin through it.

Mine's pretty heavy duty, so I'm inclined to say metal ... my previous shower dual setup was definitely plastic, so there's a difference in the feel & weight. The shower head 'face' appears to be a rubber coated dial, but not flimsy, firm clicks to rotate for various water pressure settings, while the metal 3 way valve on the side turns easily, but firmly (not loose) to click to regular shower, hand held shower, or both shower heads at once. Hope this helps.
