    I pull a lot of hazmat, unload it occasionally :(. I figured my aluminum I had given to me by a customerone nite wasn't good for some chemicals since the ones they issue are stainless steel. I will just keep Useing what I got. For some reason the company doesn't give out the 3x2 double female.. only for 1 job specific I seen so far and it has to stay with trailer. 3x2 double female it's my favorite fitting. Seems it's the only 1 I use 90% time. I rather use 1 fitting than 2 or 3 always. Less places for any surprises.

    I have the same fitting as you 3"fem ×2"fem and I also love it, I also carry 3 2" hoses so that fitting get alot of pump off work. I use my 2" hoses as much as possible But is usally solvents I pump off occasionally some oils.
    Corrosives i haul are always aired off.
    Like you said the less fitting the less likelihood of leaks

    Sounds like in 3D mode on screen... look to the bottom, just to the right of the bar,,, If this an TND you can tap on it to Toggle between 2D (heading up), North Up, or 3D mode.

    Heres a pretty good list. It's for automotive stuff, but deals with their effects on aluminum.

    Edit......it helps if I post the list doesn't it.....big dummy

    I was curious as well, but don't see a list. I've not hauled corrosives in over 5 years, but would still like to know. LIST?!? Isn't that what a boat (or a PIE does @Puppage ?) when it's falling wayward?!? ;) hehehe....
