What is the cap made out of? How heat resistant is it?

the cap is a black plastic. i'm not sure what exactly it is or how resistant. i haven't used my canteen yet. the lid is chained onto the canteen, and this is military grade, so i would assume it could get pretty hot or you would want to cut the chain. sorry i couldn't be of more help. overall though, it's built well and is worth the price.

I'm sure it's made in China so who knows your buying it for stainless bottle not the lid but it doesn't leak

Cap is made of plastic. I don't know how heat resistant it is but I wouldn't try boiling water with the cap on.

The cap is made of hard, thick plastic that most canteens like this are made of. I just got it and so have not put it up against any heat yet but it seems that it will do fine.

I guess It's Aluminum. Fits well on Prestige Cooker. Why bother? It'll melt when pressure is high as safety measure.

The caps are definitely metal. Just make sure to buy from a good seller here on Amazon, there are a lot of knock-offs going around.

I think it is some type of plastic. I have never burned myself, because of the way it is constructed. One reviewer said they burned themself but I don't know how they managed that. I think they were reviewing the wrong product.

The caps are plastic, and require use of a gasket to make a tight seal - and the gasket is also plastic. Mine nearly immediately went bad upon contact with olive oil in the bottle. I was able to order replacement gaskets through Amazon. Very good question about the caps: I don't know. But on re-examining one of my bottles just now, I would guess that lifetime maintainability by replacing the caps was never considered in the design. You would need pliers, good manual dexterity, and great luck not to shatter the bottle. So in short, this is an expensive bottle that's generally not intended for long life. I hope this helps.

It is made of plastic. As for heat, I ruined one because I put it in the dishwasher. But, I put the new one in and it is fine. So, boiling hot may not be the best.

It is plastic. As you can see, most of the electric kettle's lids are made of special plastic that is okay for high temperature.

I am not positive but I think I read on the internet that most are high-heat resistant up to 500F. Good luck.

It is plastic, the reason I bought this was because where I board my horse, he has a buddy out there, and they got really restless this past winter and destroyed one of the regular 5 gal heated buckets. Once we plugged this bad boy in and filled it up, they didn't try to kick it or anything. So far it has been the best heated bucket I've purchased!

It's all metal except the knob and both handles have a silicone? insert or covering to, I believe, help you grip those parts better. I'm not sure if they're heat resistant at all. The clip or scraper on the bottom may be plastic.

I actually called the manufacturer and they said that the plastic cap is BPA-free too. The rest of the steamer that comes in contact with water or food is stainless steel. That said they just came out with a new CERAMIC heater cap that can be purchased separately here on Amazon. I am hoping they will eventually include it in the steamer package for new customers instead of making them buy it additionally. Overall, this steamer is, I think, the best in the market. I used it for baby food too, and loved it!

The canister is made of glass. The cap and housing appears to be aluminum. The atomizer body and button is metal.

As far as I know, the cap is not removable. You should contact the seller or manufacturer about that.

The interior is a vinyl or similar, it does not look like rubber. The exterior feels like cloth. Maybe they are bonded together. If you're concerned about allergic reaction you should contact the manufacturer to be sure. The cap is water tight.

It's plastic. I only use it for 30 min in the mornings, it only gets warm- I've never had it on longer than that.
