Is this a metal or plastic chassis clipper?

The body of the clippers is plastic. But it is painted metal color. Some of the paint on ours has worn off. It's pretty heavy duty. My daughter has dropped them a couple of times and they were fine. Plus there is no rusting or corrosion issues. We did have to replace them once when her horse flung her head and the clippers took off flying through the air. We bought another just like it and now have a charger to leave in the barn and one for at home and four batteries to charge insead of two.

The rotary blades are metal with attached rubber faces. The outer housing is plastic.

The handle is plastic. Haven't dropped it off my picker yet, but I have a feeling it would shatter. Hope this helps...

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

The entire handle appears to be metal although I do not know what kind of metal. The entire shear appears to be sturdy. I usually clip tree and bush branches very small so I can dispose of them in trash bags. Many of these branches are at least 3/4" thick. I just stuffed about 8 large contractor trash bags full of clippings I made with these clippers. I feel like they still have a lot of life left in them.

It is a metal blade, aluminum. The unit has been installed for several years now with no problems. I am completely satisfied

Plastic, and in my opinion its dangerous to use because the action on this knife is very tight and the force needed to get it to open it enough that I've almost sliced my thumb the times I've used the thumb knob to open it.

humm I'm not sure probably some type of plastic, they work quite well though. I recommend them for removing pet hair

Metal. I bought it to slice meat for jerky and ham for deli slices, I have been extremely satisfied with the unit for the price. There is a plastic spacer behind the blade when you clean the unit, every time you use it, that is tricky to put back in place. clean it well and just place it back in correctly (patience). I use it probably twice a month so heavy use may not be best for this unit.

Metal. Aluminum I assume. I found it to have absurdly sharp points and sharp edges along the cuts between the teeth. So sharp it cut many hairs or grabbed so hard it ripped whole hairs out.

The rotary blades are metal with attached rubber faces. The outer housing is 1/2 metal (in front) and 1/2 plastic in back I believe ... I am not at home to check. This is a light unit and it works very well for me. I am very happy that I bought this!

The handle itself is plastic, and the pole attached to the handle is metal. Tough little wagon. I use it in my flower garden.

It appears to be metal or a very very heavy grade plastic. So far it has worked very well for me. I'm not disappointed in this purchase.

They are both made from aircraft aluminum. , the clip may vary between production runs, some snap on, some are attached with screws. I've got both models and they are both good tools.

Metal chassis, but the bits around the screen shown on the picture in black are plastic. If you're worried about road-worthiness I don;t think you'll have a problem.

It is made of plastic, but don't let that fool you. It is very durable and does not feel light weight with the blade.

The one I have is plastic. I am very pleased with the item. It doesn't feel "cheaply made". I would recommend. It works great for me.
