Are these "2 Pack - Drive Gear for Sears Craftsman Liftmaster Chamberlain Garage Door Openers" made of virgin plastic; i.e. not recycled plastic?

They look to be original and work very well, as with all plastic gears, the gear teeth must be well greased to prevent excaessive wear

I'm not sure. I'm not the seller. I bought this gear set to fix my garage door opener and it worked great

I'm not sure if these boxes are actually made from recycled material, however, they are recyclable.

They are plastic. But they are not the cheap plastic. They can be used to mircowave.

At least the Harbor Freight version is all metal (aluminum). The entire housing of this thing is plastic, for that price. But, hey, you could always buy the "master" version, also plastic, for even more. There's nothing to these things. They're just drill guides, and the Harbor Freight version (with the right drill bits, etc) can do that just fine.

it might not need change out. I found that all I needed to replace the plastic gears for about $25.00. better than $150.00 for new one. if you have to replace your garage door opener you can just buy any opener, but you might have to change the sensors not a big deal.

In the product description: "Replacement gear kit assembly for all 1984-Present garage door operators. -Compatible with Liftmaster, Chamberlain...". So, as long as yours was made after 1984, then yes it is compatible.

The old garage opener I had lasted 20 years that one had delron ( Nylon) material it is lot stronger and had lubricated properties I thing this one has the same thing if you gear broken due to defective material or workmanship it can be replaced easily. But I very satisfy with Chamberlin product. Suki

They are identical in every way to the original equipment manufacturer. So, you can expect about the same life out of these as you got from your original pulls... The good news is, they are nice and tight in fit so you don't have to exert a lot of force to open the mechanism. I've been very pleased with these replacements.

yes they are plastic, but not sure about BPA free, I'd contact manufacturer for reassurance on that.It's a REALLY nice kit!

They are made out of something other than ordinary plastic. Silicon is my best guess, they era so flimsy and difficult to handle I can't recommend them. If bpa is what you find in the cheapest of products...my guess is it's in these items.

Well, Patty, we actually bought a LiftMaster Security + (http://www.amazon.com/Sears-Craftsman-139-53681-Remote-Equivalent/dp/B00283W5LO) THe circuit board inside is a light green -- my wife says moss green. It worked fine -- but you've got to follow the manual instructions on synchronizing the code. After a couple years, we did end up replacing the entire opener with a different brand. I have the Craftsman openers -- not sure why we kept them. Cover my mailing costs and I'll send them to you. arboldt@bigfoot.com

This looks exactly like the kit I purchased from Amazon for my Sears garage door opener. I also own a Chamberlain opener. The mechanicals look exactly the same relative to the 2 all important gears in the kit. Suggestion...lube the gears with a proper lubricant on a regular basis.

The lens covers I received were plastic and were the same good quality level as the ones I removed to install these. I would definitely recommend these.

My garage door opener was a CRAFTSMAN Brand. It worked very well until now. It fit my existing BRACKET perfectly which is also by Craftsman.

Yes, wheel and enclosure are plastic. The power wheel worked poorly for me as the generator seemed to be damaged/bent and didn't run smoothly.

All I can tell you is that what came with the lens all have "Pentax" stamped on them. I guess they could be made by someone else for Pentax, like, say Whirlpool washers and dryers that say "Sears." As long as they fit, I don't really care who makes the low tech plastic stuff. Sorry if I'm not understanding your concern.
