I was servicing the big, backpack Echo pump sprayer the other day and in the process, I cleaned off some rusted areas on the pump lever mechanism using the wire wheel on the grinder.

But, when I got to this flange that connects to the handle bracket, I was most surprised to see what I thought was steel, MELTING!

Took a closer look and I thought this might a 3D metal printed part. Can't think of what other material it might be but it's not plastic or vinyl.
