Hi guys, sorry for a novice question, but there's this popular silvery housing

And I can't figure out what material is it. Seems too strong for aluminum... maybe steel?

Thanks

Yes that's correct, those Aixiz modules are nickel plated brass.

Yes both are right. Once again- nickel plated brass. However DTR sells modules that are copper and aluminium. They are much better quality and i much prefer using them for builds :beer:
