It's carbon that flakes off the click plate in the cap. The cap and disc are made of Stainless steel. I would guess 400 series for the outer and probably 300 for the click plate. No stainless steel can release anything at the temps we use. A butane torch can get to ~2800°f, still no where near melting temp of SS. Even then it still won't release any toxins. To release toxins it needs to vaporize( welding temps). TL;DR The dyna can't release any toxins from the metals it's made from.
That looks like carbon to me. Carbon that comes off metal can be shiny. You’ll be fine. That black stuff you have in the cap is also carbon and will eventually flake off eventually.
I suspect/hope that is carbon build up shedding off the inside bottom of the cap. It's shiny because the cap is smooth and it separated in a sheet. I am not an expert.
This would be my thought as well, given we can already see the existing thick carbon build up inside on the disc. It does look a bit suspect in the picture, but I can only assume it's weird camera stuff.
Time for a new cap lol. Since these metals were there from the start you have nothing to worry about from toxicology perspective, but yeah just get a new cap
Does your cap have a tiny bullet dent in the tail? Like it saved your life at some point from a tiny assassin 😂 Seriously though just get in touch and they'll hook you up!
Kinda looks like your bimetal disc broke 🤔, that bimetal disc is made by 2 different types of metal that expand differently when heated, thats why the disc is gonna bend in one direction when heated and thats what creates the click, and the cooldown click when it returns to the original position.
Kinda looks like aluminum foil in the tip. Coloration and size of the pieces. Ever do a puzzle. Where do those pieces fit in the missing area. I understand ware on The inside of a cap But looks sus. No offence. Got some clearer pics
has this only happened on this cap, i think i saw a post from you about this cap being 'modified' maybe it wasnt you but i remember that dent on the P of the logo from another post
whether it’s metal or carbon I don’t think it’s not a big deal the human body is pretty tough and resilient people working in steel mills get exposed to amounts of this on a daily basis. I’m sure whoever it was that machine the Dinave was exposed to some type of powder. Whatever’s in there is worth avoiding but I don’t think I’d let it freak you out hope this brings you a little piece

You waited a while to hear this but, username checks out!

if it's brittle rather than malleable you can confirm it's carbon.
Was thinking about the same. The only way that is metal if there was metal coating on that. That would be just weird...
I get the same thing on my Weber.
id say that the fact the tip was packed, would have stopped any of it from passing through and getting to you.
Yeah that was a cold start first hit, idk what made me open it but yeah... Glad I did.
Bro hit dynavap up for a Freshie mine stopped clicking they sent me a replacement for free
Just build up flaking off no worries imo
Looks like carbon build up
Well that's a first for me to see. Is that aluminum or other metal that came off the clicker? Weird is it soft n brittle or hard n sharp
Its like.... Hard and brittle. It disintegrated to powder whn i tried picking it up
How long are you heating it? I’ve had my dyna for years now and used it 1,000+ times and my cap doesn’t look like that lol
Couple years idek lol
Just curious - what’s your cleaning method?
Yeah your gonna die now, prolly 3 weeks to live max
Your cap is fucked homie.
Wait do they give u free caps if ur current one is fucked?
When do you know if the cap is “done” and needs to be replaced?
Time for a new cap lol. Since these metals were there from the start you have nothing to worry about from toxicology perspective, but yeah just get a new cap
Idk brother. Kind of a shit post if this an over three year old cap that you rarely clean
wtf is that? kinda looks like zinc

I was wondering what that was 😂
The inside of my cap looks exactly like that… but I never noticed any metal flakes… uh oh lol
Bruh same
That's... Icky
Yes indeed. You're cuticles appear to be quite dry and could use a bit of moisturization.
Ex vet tech, works with pets. Hand cleaning protocol for that will dry your hands out quicker than shit. Sometimes itll make ya bleed.
I was thinking the same thing!

Looks like carbon, but maybe just get a new cap? They're 20 bucks🤷🏼♂️
If you are that dirty expect debris
Seems like there's a lot of posts about sus caps lately - from being put on too tight, breaking easily, etc.
This is why I haven’t been using mine.

Looks like this sub has turned into /trees. I'm out.
