[QUOTE="LaqueRatt, post: 513842, member: 32586"] You know, I'm sure you guys are right about all these chemical reactions and how vulnerable the alum is to deterioration when certain materials are in contact with it. Maybe because I'm 1,000 miles away from the salt, but I'm not seeing any of this. Even though I've had tinnies that had regular nuts and screws and treated lumber as well. In fact, virtually every piece of hardware I'm seeing that has been added by someone is just normal crap and yes, it eventually rusts, but not for quite a while. Not to be contrary, but I'm thinking it would take years for this to be an issue. Am I wrong? [/QUOTE]
