How ordinary iron to stainless steel?
Oversimplifying it alot: Iron + Carbon --> High Carbon Steel High Carbon Steel + Chromium & other surface alloy metals --> Stainless Steel Basically Stainless Steel is ordinary Steel with a surface Chrome Steel layer protecting it from corrosion.
What is the difference between stainless steel and normal steel?
stainless steel has chromium added to the steel, which forms a protective oxide layer at the surface, preventing corrosion (rust).
What is the lifespan of stainless steel?
The life span of stainless steel depends on the type of stainless steel, the environment it is located, and the surface treatment. There is micro-pitting that will occur with out effecting the structural integrity of the steel but will tarnish the 'stainless' appearance. If the environment is free of heavy moisture and corrosive chemicals 316 stainless steel will last 1200 years with out significant decay.
What is the difference between stainless steel and real stainless steel in refrigerators?
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...

What are the types of rods use for welding stainless steel?
The most common types of rods used for welding stainless steel are 308, 309, and 316. 308 rods are best for welding 304 stainless steel, while 309 rods are recommended for welding 309 stainless steel. 316 rods are suitable for welding 316 stainless steel and are also good for general-purpose welding of higher-grade stainless steels.
