I would suspect that fiberglass was added later. The two originals I have here are some form of plastic browning and cracking with age.

Similar issue, removed the old fiberglass type supports.   Used sheet of
plastic about 3/16" thick and cut new somewhat square supports, could have
been 1/4".
The sheet is ldpe type plastic.   Found LPDE local - 1x1 foot piece and
bought it.
ebay should have something too

link should show amp with good enough resolution to zoom into new supports

.... Work in progress

I was fortunate to save a Classy home brew 2 / 4-400 KW amplifier in a 4ft
rack from a trip to the landfill and am trying to bring it back to life.
The coil support rods in the B+W 850a are missing and I am looking for
suggestions for replacements.
