They say you can use them, but would want to see a listing that says they are suitable for use with aluminum.

I did not do all of the research that is required...if you are going to use them for aluminum, you need to verify that they are listed for that purpose.

While the code language in the parent text of 110.14 stops short of requiring the connector to be listed for that use, I would not use such a connector.
