They typically have cast ABS or PVC bodies but I cannot attest to the materials used inside the valve. I can however guarantee that they are under $250 and usually operate on 120V.

I'll try to get some contact info at work tomorrow and post if I find anything out.
It is likely an Asco Valve solenoid, there is metal in them, I do work for them.
