Best Answer

No. Exposure will allow the bar to rust. The rust will travel through the bar over time, not stay isolated to just the exposed area. Over time the rust could compromise the integrity of the bar and cause failure. As to the rate this happens, it is based of the amount of exposure and conditions it is in.
