I had to use aluminum conduit unions on brass fittings on Halon bottles in turbines.

They didn't even know why this happened when they first started putting copper on ships.
Using iron nails they turned to paste.
The more noble metal will be okay the less noble will be eaten up by this reaction.

Who ever dreamed up aluminum fittings for hoses to go on brass hose bibs is an idiot.

I am sure we have electrical grease back there too for the trailer fittings when the men work on the electrical stuff there, too.
