I bought this plastic valve on amazon. I wanted a light valve.This is not necessarily an Anvil specific question. I am planning on adding a ball valve on the outlet side of the pump for better flow control than the included clamping device. I have both a brass valve and stainless. Normally, I wouldn’t even think twice and use the stainless but it is a good bit heavier than the brass valve and it will just be hanging with the tubing.
Is there any reason not to use brass for this application?

I use a barbed plastic valve to keep light. I inserted it half way between my pump and outlet.Exactly why I asked. I was not aware of the possible reactions there. Thanks! Stainless it is.
