I agree, Bill, as long as one uses a steel stop nut to capture the threaded Al collar, the steel will take the load. If one only uses the fine threads in the collar to aid in initial adjustment, and then cranks the stop nut down tight against it, you have the best of both worlds. Reasonably easy adjustment coupled with the right material to take the loads. Good engineering solution!
