I'm not sure I understand the problem. Did you strip the lockring threads on your old hub because not enough of the lockring was able to engage? My choice for cogs has been surly or dura-ace, if not enough lockring threads are engaging you might look into the dura-ace cogs, the 1/8" variety is recessed on the side so the lockring can thread on a bit more.
