This purchase is for a Water Pump Cover for the above bike model. The material of the Water Pump Cover is made of UHMW-PE (ultra high molecular weight polyethylene), a tough plastic with good strength, wear resistance and dimensional stability. It is more dimensionally stable than Nylon and used in many industrial ball bearing and friction reducing applications. Compared to Delrin, it is softer but tougher. Delrin is harder but more brittle. It is an ideal material for pump covers since it can absorb more impact force onto itself and therefore reduce the impact on the water pump. The bolts are made of the highest grade commercially available material 12.9(177,000 psi in tensile strength) wherever possible. Rest assured that you are getting the best material commercially available.
