SPECIAL APPLICATIONS
4-4.1
Stainless Steel Fittings. Stainless steel fittings may be used for special
applications, if warranted, but should be used judiciously because many stainless steels
do not perform well in saltwater. They often experience severe pitting and crevice
corrosion more than regular carbon steel.
4-4.2
Through Bolts. Use through bolts to the fullest extent possible.
