I don't have the knowledge of the SS metals by any means.... but FYI Jerry's SS bolts which I also have, also stick to the pencil magnet as well. So if that is the case, then I am assuming that those bolts are also ferritic stainless steel as well. And if so that would mean they would also rust???
The simple solution to all of the rusting issues on either style bolt, is to change them when they do!!! ![]() ![]() ![]() Then again from the above quote.... "ferritic stainless steels are generally magnetic, while austenitic stainless steels usually are not" the words "usually are not" can also be interpreted that these bolts can also be austenitic stainless, which could mean that some are and some aren't......hmmmm the mystery continues.....
