giamtw over 3 years ago

Hi gurus ,

May I know what are reliable and readily available alternative material which will not rust beside stainless steel ?

If stainless doesn't work for you, you might try zinc plated steel cage nuts. They "rust" between 30 and 100 times slower than bare carbon steel.

No other option exists.. I don't think manufacturers offer any other option than steel.

Not sure you should be trusting anything else except steel, for the mass of the equipment on the few nuts/screws that hold them up.
