Great video and explanation. Can you tell us if Stainless is also lighter? That would be another benefit of us buying your SS fitting over the Brass ones.

While he says Brass and Stainless are interchangeable, I can't get the stainless garden hose plug to click-connect onto the garden hose spigot disconnect. There's not enough space at the end of the plug on the male end to allow the ball bearing detents to go back into the "sealed" position when the brass part is hand-tightened to the spigot end. I've got a hose with stainless fittings, but my spigot is brass, which is why I'd wanted to use both.

Can you also compare Zinc Alloy vs Brass? And ABS Plastic vs Brass? @veloci
