    known as rustless steel

    Corrosion resistance Although stainless steel does rust, this only affects the outer few layers of atoms, its chromium content shielding deeper layers from oxidation.

      If they had picked the correct grade of stainless steel, it wouldn’t rust just by being outside. Cheaper grades rust, higher grades don’t.
