    The Chinese spindles look more like stainless steel to me. The end cap could be aluminium but the barbs go most of the way through up to the seal.

    In any case the EK-Cryo fluid claims to be ok with SS Ali brass etc for corrosion and is not an additive. Just pour in neat.

    I’ve used it for years without issues.
