Stainless steel scrap

Stainless resists rust because of the chromium in it, and that alloy content is what gives it more value than plain steel.

Not all stainless is non-magnetic

The common assumption is that stainless never sticks to a magnet, but that only holds for some grades. Others are mildly magnetic, so the magnet test alone will not tell you what you have.

Bring it in either way. Stainless is worth keeping apart from your plain steel rather than letting it grade down with the load.

Good to know

Worth separating from your steel
