    Check grade/quality of Stainless Steel

    When buying a stainless steel product for a boat, there is always the question "Will it Rust?"  One way to check the grade/quality of the stainless steel is with a magnet.  If the magnet will adhere to the product, it will rust.  Take for example a hose clamp.  The band of the clamp may be of good quality and the magnet not stick or adhere; however, the adjusting screw may be of poor quality and the magnet will stick.  All good quality/grade stainless steel is non-magnetic----bolts, screws, nuts and plugs.  If you are going to use it in a boat, make sure it is non-magnetic.

     There's more to stainless then rust resistance, especially for boats used in salt water.  It's all about how much nickel is used. The cheapest type 304 will rust when exposed to salt rather quickly - you get rust spots all over.   Type 316 (and above) are what you want.  And then one has to consider strength.  304 is relatively weak - so be careful when you are replacing a "steel" bolt just because of "rust".
