Conclusion
Galvanic series showing the relationships and a
guide for selecting materials that can be joined.
The further apart the materials are in the series,
the higher risk of galvanic corrosion.
Galvanic compability is managed by harsh
environment,
normal
environment
and
controlled environment.
