aluminum in concrete [RE-wrenches]

Jay:

Don't use AL in direct contact with Concrete if you want it to last for
more than 3-5 years!

(Wish I had time to dig out some pics to share..... Not a pretty thing!)

Corrosion and highly degradatory structural things begin happening
immediately!  Trust me on this... AL & Concrete are NOT a good
combination!  Try good Stainless standoff flange.  Bolt AL to it.  MUCH
better!

Best and Sunshine!

Hi All,

Say, wanted to know if there are any problems with putting Al into
concrete. I need to raise a ground mount 2' and to use AL set into
concrete would easy the install.

Thanks,

jay
