Home Improvement - METALS - STAINLESS STEEL CHARACTERISTICS

Stainless Steel Characteristics
Stainless steel is an alloy of iron which contains
more than 10% chromium. Stainless steel cannot be stained
but occasionally dulls or will show oily finger prints.
This steel is noted for its hardness and is used for
utensils, tableware, sinks, counter tops, and small
appliances. In the process of making it, a little of the
chromium in the alloy is used to form the hard oxide
coating on the surface. If this is taken off, through
corrosion or wear, the steel rusts like regular steel.
