They do rust somewhat just like the nozzles and nozzle holder. From my experience, oxide builds up inside brass fittings. I'm tired of replacing cracked or broken PVC couplings. It doesn't happen every day but enough to be annoying. I'm going to see how the SS couplings do.

Dave are you using Schedule 80 PVC? Our local plumbing supplier started to stock it so we are happy campers.
For those that use stainless steel fittings, I found what I believe to be a good price. $4.95 for 1/2" barbed in 316 stainless steel.
