    Actually, I'd recommend stainless steel. It's harder and stronger than brass. But Frank's correct that you shouldn't settle for some cheapy made out of mystery metal when a really good stainless steel 1/4-20 to 3/8-16 bushing shouldn't cost more than a few bucks.

    Bogen/Manfrotto makes (or used to make, haven't checked lately) one of these adapters. I don't know what the material is but I've used a couple of them and they worked just fine.

    Before you criticize someone, walk a mile in their shoes. That way when you do criticize them you'll be
    a mile away and you'll have their shoes.

    Calumet has 3/8-1/4 adapters. The last time I bought one, about 2 years ago, they were stainless steel and well made.
