Is there a problem attaching stainless fasteners to stainless plates? This is a building cladding application. The environment is dry, but may have high humidity.

did you mean galvanized steel to stainless steel? In this case there could be some problem of galvanic corrosion but it all depends on many factors like the ratio of the surface, and the type of exposure: marine atmospherem, industrial.. and how much humidity, condensation ..

the cathodic area in you case (stainless steel) should be considerably higher than anodic area and if the environment is not so aggressive (not marine) than i'll see no problem. S.
