[Public-list] Stainless Machine screws into Aluminum Masts

[Mpete53 at aol.com]

Removing stainless fasteners from aluminum, try heat. A propane torch  
usually gives enough heat to expand the aluminum so that you can remove the  
fastener. The paint it would be toasted.
 
Taping Aluminum. A friend of mine gave me some sulfur based tapping fluid,  
he said the name of the product is "Sul floe." The stuff works great. The taps  
cut clean and easily. Where to get it? I don't know, but if you find it try  
it.
