I have heard that there can be a galvanic reaction between aluminum and
stainless that causes corrosion. But it is my understanding that it
takes a very long time to occur unless certain conditions exist that
accelerate it. I'm not sure what those conditions are, maybe an
electrical current running through the part? I'm sure Jarrid knows the
answer. Jarrid?
