Does Stainless Steel Rust? Learn from the Pros
One of the many benefits of using stainless steel as an outdoor appliance is the concept of the steel appliances being resistant to rust. Rust comes to mind when building outdoor kitchens, as extreme weather elements can take a toll on any outdoor appliance. Some have argued that stainless steel can rust as much as other steel products, but that’s not entirely accurate. Learn from the pros as we discuss the difference in stainless steel, and why quality should matter.
Does Stainless Steel Rust?
Based on the name, one would assume stainless steel is powerful enough to endure harsh conditions. Although this is true, the quality of the stainless steel is the ultimate factor that determines if it will rust. All steels hold the same iron and carbon composition, but stainless steel is created with a hefty dose of chromium, the one material that gives the steel the resilience to rust.
The quality of the stainless steel depends on the grade of steel and the levels of chromium. 304 grade stainless steel is appropriate for long-term exposure to harsh elements, due to its outstanding corrosion resistance. Because of the resistance, products made with 304 are not likely to rust. This adds value to any stainless steel product, promising a long-lasting lifetime. The durability held in 304 stainless steel makes it easy to sanitize, making it ideal for kitchen applications.
