I think panzer roughly means tank in German.

Exactly that's why when used freely as an adjective means something which is really strong... like the tank's armour.
Right. That part was so obvious, I didn't see the need to connect the last dot.
Amazing how this thread morphed... I really don't consider aluminum "panzer" material.
Anyone here have experience with using aluminum threads for the battery connector on a mod? How well did they hold up when screwing atomizers on and off say 2 to 4 times a day?

Don't worry, not the first one
Well that was my question, actually. Mind we're talking 7075 aircraft grade aluminum, not just any aluminium like you get in cheap disposable spoons and knifes.
Imeo, good friend, is GGTSv2 aluminium threads stronger (or harder) than GGTS brass threads?

Ok, what did I find about brass and 7075 alu
Brass:
Guide to Buying Brass Online | Online Metals Guide to Selecting Metals for Your Project - nothning above B82 Rockwell scale (unless it's C770 Nickel Silver which looks like silver, and has B96)
Aluminum:
Guide to Buying Aluminum Online | Online Metals Guide to Selecting Metals for Your Project - 7075 has B87
So it's brass's B82 v 7075 alu B87. (at least from what you can buy on that website). Not sure what mods use C770 brass though. But you get the idea.
The other question is, which brass whit what index is commonly used in mod's threads? I have no idea.
For instance, new Prodigy V3 from Puresmoker is made of 304 stainless steel - Rockwell hardness index B70.
What I think is -- you should be really good with 7075 alu and it's B87 index for screwing and unscrewing your attys 50 times (if not 500) per day.
