What's stainless steel made of?

Like all other kinds of steel, stainless steel is made primarily from iron and carbon in a two-step process. What makes stainless steel different is the addition of chromium (Cr) and other alloying elements such as nickel (Ni) to create a corrosion-resistant product.

Different Types of Stainless Steel

Stainless steel is an alloy of several different types of metal that, when combined, are stronger and more durable than when they are separate. By adding and subtracting various elements to stainless steel, engineers have been able to create many different varieties of the alloy, each with their own characteristics and uses. Stainless steel is a versatile metal and can be used for many different things ranging from construction to kitchen equipment. Many different types of stainless steel grades are used in foodservice establishments, and each type has its own pros and cons. To make an informed decision when purchasing food grade stainless steel equipment, you should understand the major elements in the alloy, the different grading systems, and the main types of stainless steel.

430 Series Stainless Steel

430 stainless steel contains a very small amount of nickel, and it's not as corrosion resistant as the 300 series steels. This type is also magnetic.
