M_Boats: Never Seize? Dissimilar Metals . . .

[Honshells]

What is "Never Seize", Sandy?  I knew stainless would corrode Aluminum, but thought it was used for mast and boom hardware because its corrosive effects are minimal compared to other dissimilar metals (like the bronze I am using everywhere else I can on my M17).  Is there any way to really prevent the corrosive effects of mating dissimilar metals?  For instance, in several places I am mating stainless with bronze, which, as I understand will also create a corrosive environment, but at an acceptable rate (West Marine's bronze turnbuckles have stainless screws).  Would this "Never Seize" not only stop the corrosive relationship between stainless and aluminum, but also between stainless and bronze?  Is this stuff useful where motion will cause abrasion?  Thanks!  --Craig ----- Original Message ----- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Wednesday, February 12, 2003 10:54 AM Subject: Boom Bale, Genoa Cover In a message dated 2/12/2003 7:50:10 AM US Mountain Standard Time, [EMAIL PROTECTED] writes: mounting fixtures on mast and boom by tapping and using machine screws.  Any reason the bail can't be mounted up using this method? I mounted all my boom and mast fixtures this way. I never had any fail on me. Remember, always use "Never Sieze" on dissimilar metals in a corrosive environment. Aluminum and SS will corrode the anodic metal (Al) in a wet environment. Sandy
