The bodies (outer shells) of most  Non - Return valve/check valves are made of plastic or metal.

Importance Concepts in (NRV) Non - Return Valves

  An important concept in the Non - Return valve/check valve is the cracking pressure which is the minimum differential upstream pressure between the inlet and outlet at which the valve will operate.  Is usually designed for Non - Returnable valve/check valves and can therefore be specified for a specific cracking pressure.

  Heart valve are essentially inlet and outlet check valves for the ventricles of the heart, as the ventricles act as pumps.
