Material Compatibility
Metal Compatibility
The susceptibility of different base metals to corrosion while in contact depends upon the difference between the contact potentials or the electromotive voltages of the metals involved. Use our Galvanic Corrosion Scale to find the metal combination with the least potential.
Tube Fitting Material Compatibility
As a general rule, tube and fitting materials should be the same. If different materials must be considered, use this chart as a general guide for finding the most compatible products.
