Is there some type of reaction between aluminum and steel when they are in physical contact with each other? I read something about this a while back but cant remember the details. Any help will be appreciated. Thanks

All disimilar metals have a different electrical potential. They will corrode when in contact with each other. The process is called galvanic action.

YES, its called dis-similar metal corrosion.

There are ways to isolate, protect, and minimize the process.
