Those are standard on the Camo edition Outback.

You do this because of the fact that they are dissimilar alloys and will react with each other?

Stainless has the unique qualities to WELD Its self . Even when hand tighten too just bout any other metal . Add salt water in the mix makes normal . In to a large issue , care should be taken with dissimilar metals . A Kayak is not a cheap investment

A little protection never hurts, but according to the "Anodic Index" stainless and brass/bronze are compatible and acceptable for use in harsh environments.
