[QUOTE="mogfisher, post: 90831, member: 1618"] mcmaster carr sells (and i'm sure others do too) aluminum rivnuts. for those who dont know what they are, basically they are rivits that once installed you can thread a bolt into the middle of. I haven't used the aluminum ones but I've used the steel ones and they are very strong. The tension of the bolt actually adds to the tension of the rivet. I would think these would be the perfect solution to the ''dissimilar metals" issue we have when decking or adding accessories. has anyone used them? I think i'm going to order some for my upcoming decking project. [/QUOTE]
