[AT] brass corrosion resistance

[charlie hill]

One more thing. John, I know you have your 
reasons for not wanting to use "plastic" but
for liquid nitrogen or ammonia I'd be using 
nylon fittings and I'm sure Tractor Supply has those.

That sounds like liquid NH3 which is Ammonia.   Brass will be eaten up 
in a heartbeat.  If you can find nylon or fibre that will stand your 
pressure,  Then Stainless is your only alternative. Galvanized will do 
the same thing just a little longer.   It also releases bad vapors.  Try 
www.DiscountHydraulicHose.com  They ship pretty fast..
