Yes, phenolic or micarta as its called in other applications. Phenolic is very tough, but does have more flex than other materials in identical risers...but not enough to deter anyone from buying a phenolic riser...in fact I won the world with a solid back phenolic ACS.

What's a good source for buying some in riser block sizes?
