Cassette spacers on plenty of cassettes are plastic....
The gaps in a cassette aren't under much compression though.
@user71349 you're right, as you pedal the freewheel will tighten and compress the spacer, I'd be worried about using a plastic one too.
I don't think you need to pay £11 for a metal spacer though.
Here's a steel one for £1.91 delivered.
Thanks for link, ordered a few last night though. Cheers.
