Why are some TUSHY parts made of plastic?Updated 2 months ago

We chose polyoxymethylene plastic for our mega adapters due to its excellent mechanical, chemical, and corrosion-resistant properties. This high-strength thermoplastic withstands up to 290 PSI—well above typical home water pressure levels—and resists organic solvents and chemicals that can corrode metals. It also exhibits minimal wear, fatigue, and stress cracking, ensuring reliable performance over time. It's a a carefully engineered piece! 

We hope this reassures you, but if you prefer, you can also purchase a brass adapter to connect directly at the angle valve.
