Can galvinised bolts (A320)be used on Duplex Stainless Steel & 316SS piping where the chances for moisture are present during the years by means of raining (30 days a year) & fall of temperatures affacts ( evening to morning for the period of approx. 30-40 days)?.

if some has the same experience, please can he mention the corrosion effects (bi-metallic corrosion) on the zinc coated bolts & nuts?. We are expecting severe consumption of the zinc coating due to higher cathodic to andic area ratio.
