I have got the plastic one.** A: It is plastic -- probably compression-molded glass filled. I gave mine to a local charity. **Q: how many in a single order do you get?** A: Hi Imre, Great question! We offer these on Amazon as single units, so if you want more than 1 T0112, you'll need to select the exact quantity you'd like to buy and then add them all to your cart. Hope that helps! The Swanson Team **Q: will it float in water, building a boat dock .. dropped my aluminum one, sank like a rock..** A: Ok I had to try this out in the shop sink and Mine did not float. However it did not sink instantly but it did sank. Get a floating key chain like the ones used on a boat with the stainless chain to attach while your using it near the water. Little inconvenient but that will keep it a float if you drop it again. Once your dock is done go fishing for that Aluminum Catfish Square with a treble hook. LOL Have Fun and Good Luck **Q: What type of plastic is it made of?** A: Great question! This square is made from High Impact Polystyrene - a "plastic" that is far more rugged and durable than a run-of-the-mill plastic. It is also easier to form, so it's accurate and lasting. thanks, The Swanson Team --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.us/products/15424313-swanson-speedlite-square-8-in-hi-viz-orange-composite-t0118](https://www.desertcart.us/products/15424313-swanson-speedlite-square-8-in-hi-viz-orange-composite-t0118) --- *Product available on Desertcart United States of America* *Store origin: US* *Last updated: 2026-10-14*
