I am fitting an awning rail (c-type) hopefully tomorrow if the rain has stopped by then. It is for a Fiamma Caravanstore xl which is an awning in a bag weighing roughly 10kg. I intend to stick it using Sikaflex 554 (thanks Bill @Fisherman) but as a belt and braces solution I also intend to put a stainless steel bolt at each end of the 3 sections of C-rail.
My question is, should I try and isolate the bolts from the rail with maybe a plastic washer or similar in order to avoid galvanic corrosion? I have seen these rails fitted before on Youtube where people have not done so but don't know if there were long term effects.
