Default Sealing Swages

Gosh , wouldn't we all like to have successful seals against stagnant salt water accumulating in the swage fittings ???

Marine surveyors say to just replace the SS wire and terminals at 10 year intervals ,,, kiss principal !

Brion always recommends , "Build In A Reserve of Neglect" ,,,,, such V Good Advice !

Even that you are considering and thinking about this problem ,is a great step ahead of most .

I use Sta-Locs , so that I can disassemble them for wire corrosion inspection when needed, but my question is how to keep the core wires inside 1 X 19 316 SS , from rusting ??? I purchase the highest quality 1 X 19 , I can find locally , here in S E Asia , but alas , the rust at the core is still there , eventhough it doesn't bleed to show or daylight !!!
Any Helpful Ideas out there ???
