Thanks, Ed Stainless. I am using SS because one of the components is a 316 SS spring that has been designed to meet spring constant in the geometry provided.
We simply did not consider copper or copper alloys before...
I am designing a system for use on city water in which a 316 SS spring contacts a 304SS retaining washer. I know that there will be galvanic action, but do not know how to predict how fast this will occur. Intuition tells me that it won't be significant because the metal nobilities are very...
