The link below suggests that there can be a severe galvanic corrosion risk when magnesium is adjacent to stainless steel.
My question is if this is true, does that mean that you should not use a steel or stainless helical insert (helicoil) or staked-in insert such as a keensert in a part made of magnesium? It is standard practice for my group to use stainless inserts when we design similar components using aluminum.
