What hardware to use in Cryogenic Application?

[kstebb]

Thanks you reading, I have to mount a sipphire block into a cryo dewar with some sensors and i am wondering why woudl be the best hardware to use to do this and why. Should I use 18-8 stainless steel hardware or brass? The cold plate that i will be mounting to is made up of oxgen free copper with stainless steel heli-coils. I plan to be using belleville washers to help control the cycling from hot to cold. Any input would be helpful, websites or article.
