However, there are proper combinations need to be followed to avoid corrosion on the application. For instance, never combine aluminum tubing to stainless steel fittings that might cause deterioration or rust on the materials. It is proper to match materials and consider the environment where it will be applied, meaning if the boat is intended for saltwater boating use a material which has greater resistance to corrosion like stainless steel fittings and tubing. Another important matter to remember is to utilize accurately all the screws and bolts and check if it is properly fitted.
