is it wax?

Looks like it but no.

I was going to say it looks just like the wax used to seal a toliet to the flange.

Is the material plastic (= artificial polymer)?

Nope

Surely not a potentiometer shaft/extensiono or a core for an adjustable inductor?
Hadn't better be because not many would recognise it.
Off to bed...

I like the word core.

No need to apologise. I am glad it is not that. If it was, that would mean this competition was being flushed down the drain.

Is it something the average person may not be familiar with such as a dielectric grease?

It would be not familiar to lots of people. But I'm pretty sure folks know of it. Dielectric is a fun word and still going in the right direction.

I do suppose it could look like flux, but alas it is not.

Does something wire-like or flat get wrapped around it?
