Dissimilar Material Isolation

Galvanic action of dissimilar materials causes corrosion of adjoining surfaces. To prevent this corrosion, and isolation material such as paint, sealant, or tape must be used between the two materials.

• Formacore panel/Aluminum dissimilar materials are:
  Copper, Brass, Bronze, and Carbon Steel, and require isolation.
  
  
  
• Formacore panel/aluminum similar materials are:
  Aluminum, Plastic, Galvanized Steel, and Stainless Steel. No special isolation material is required.
