There are many grades of stainless steel 303, 306 and such for various uses. The stainless steel you need is 316LVM and it's classification needs to be surgical stainless steel. Beware of junk jewellery calling it's self surgical steel, that's why you go to a professional body piercer who has many years of experience behind them. The wrong stuff can cause various problems including nickle sensitivity.
