By increasing the Ni % in the steel we can stabilised the phases which may influenced the magnetic properties, also by alloying the Si.
Stainless steel fasteners are made of steel that has been mixed with at least a ten percent compound of chromium, and possibly other metals, so that the steel doesn't rust or corrode. This makes stainless steel fasteners great for outdoor conditions, where there is a lot of water or moisture. Especially if you are building something that supports a substantial amount of weight, such as humans, you will need to use stainless steel fasteners. Steel all by itself can rust until it breaks, and nobody wants that. When stainless steel fastening systems such as nuts and bolts are employed, they tend to meld together. This is due to the chromium layer on the surface of the stainless steel being exposed to oxygen for a short time before fastening. When the pieces are screwed together, the oxygen is taken out of the equation, solidifying the bond. This process is called "galling". There are other types of stainless steel fasteners that resist becoming brittle at lower temperatures. These stainless steel screws are infused with nickel. The nickel also works to de-magnetize the stainless steel. Manganese can also be used in place of, or in cooperation with, nickel, to roughly the same effect, but at a lower cost. Carbon can also be used to reinforce the steel compound. When subjected to heat, these fasteners can become hardened and strengthened to create finer elements, like the point of the screw, as well as the threads.
Yes, stainless steel is fine with this process.

Generally if 316 has been specified for the application especially used in Marine and Industrial applications 316 (A4) fasteners should be used. Otherwise corrosion could be a possibility of the fasteners and this localised corrosion will contaminate the brackets and cause them to initially stain then corrode.
There is stainless steel and there is magnaized stainless steel but you can not make regular stainless steel magnetic
There is an explanation of passivation and the use of passivation at PF Online Passivation of Stainless Steel. Try the guide to passivation of stainless steel at the British Stainless Steel Association. It discusses the use of nitric acid and citric acid treatments.

steel is steel and there is nothing you can do about it even if it is stainless steel or it i not stainless steel it will rust
Yep, you can weld steel to stainless and you can weld stainless to steel. You can use steel or stainless welding rod in either case but the steel or steel welding rod will of course rust.

No; steel is an iron-carbon alloy. Stainless steel is an alloy of steel with chromium added. Stainless steel is usually 13-25% chromium (by weight).
Well, the answer lies in the question; by saying 'real' stainless steel, you are implying that there are fake metals which go under the name 'stainless steel', thus the difference is that the stainless steel in refigerators is actually stainless steel, and the fake stainless steel is not...thus your question is answered...
