B.1 Considerations for Untreated or Bare Dissimilar Metals

The correct material finish is important when mating untreated or bare dissimilar metals. Materials should 
be galvanically-compatible. When corrosion protection is removed to make an electrical bond, any 
exposed area after the bond is completed should be protected again. Additional guidance can be found in 
AC 43.13-1B and SAE ARP 1870. Typical electrical bonding preparation examples are shown in 
Figure B-1, Figure B-2, and Figure B-3.
