I've heard the dry sorts were very bad.

Anyway, the more that I think about it, I think there are two issues with ferrous sleeves:

1) I believe there is a reaction between aluminum and iron.

2) Iron and Aluminum have disimilar expansion rates.

Maybe the specific alloy alleviates these problems?
