180 Thermostat

Just ordered a 180* thermostat. Took a bit of searching, but found that Stant brand is made with a Stainless Steel housing and spring. The rest of it is brass.

Its worth buying the stainless thermostats, because plain coated steel will eventually corrode causing spring or housing failure that can cause the thermostat to stay closed or stay fully open.
