Product Description

Myth 1: All Stainless Steel is Non-magnetic

Reality: Stainless steel comes in various alloys, and its magnetism depends on the specific alloy composition. There are magnetic types and non-magnetic types.

Myth 2: Stainless Steel Rusts If It’s Magnetic

Reality: Magnetic stainless steel alloys can still resist rust and corrosion, just like their non-magnetic counterparts. Magnetism does not dictate corrosion resistance.

Stainless Steel Types:

Ferritic, such as 409, 430, 439. Magnetic

Austenitic, such as 304, 316. Non-Magnetic or weak magnetic
