I was about to swage, the SS wire that came with the kit with 28-2-G Zinc
plated copper sleeves, and I found this on the Web.:

Subject: NICOPRESS SLEEVES
I read a posting from the Internet that instructed people to use zinc plated
copper NICOPRESS sleeves on stainless steel aircraft cable. This is not
correct. When using stainless steel aircraft cable only TIN PLATED COPPER
or STAINLESS STEEL NICOPRESS SLEEVES should be used.
Zinc Plated Copper NICOPRESS sleeves are designed for use with galv. steel
aircraft cable.
The Tin Plated NICOPRESS Sleeves are made from a special Copper alloy that is
compatible with the Stainless Steel cable. It's the special copper alloy
that makes it acceptable for use on stainless steel aircraft, not the
plating.
If you want more information please contact us and give us your mailing
