![]() "Ignoramus14135" wrote in message .. . I will need to fasten stuff to aluminum using 10-32 screws. That will work in a dry environment (no dripping water) with sometimes high and soemtimes low humidity (garage). Can I use regular shiny galvanized screws for this or would I have galvanic corrosion issues and deal with stuck screws, later? i yes, you will have problems no matter what the screws are made of, unless they're the same grade as the aluminium. boat masts see this all the time. there is a goop that you can put in around the screws to prevent this problem. note: most boat builders use ss screws for this. |
