Real Stainless Steel

Question: I purchased utensils worth 150 $ today made of real stainless steel, how should i check whether what i bought is real steel?






Answer: The first and the most common method to check whether the steel item you purchased is real steel is the "Magnet Test" , you can rub/hover a magnet over the steal utensil if you feel no attraction you can say the utensils are made of stainless steel is real but if you feel attraction then be sure that you have been cheated.There are many flavors of stainless steel. 304 stainless is the most common (about 50% of the worlds production). It is used in everything from cars and cookware to buildings. What you need to know is that there is magnetic (400) and non-magnetic (300) stainless steel. 400 series stainless steel is not as durable or corrosion (rust) resistant at 300 series. If you want durability in your stainless steel gas grill put a magnet on it. If the magnet sticks, don't buy it. Some manufacturers use a mixture of different metals so put that magnet all over the grill to test it all and thus you can find that the steel you purchased today is the real steal.
