Stainless steel generally does not react with cast iron when in contact. However, it is best to avoid prolonged contact between the two materials to prevent any potential corrosion issues. It is recommended to use a barrier, such as oil or grease, between the stainless steel and cast iron surfaces to minimize any potential reactions.

Does water with high iron content cause stainless steel fittings to rust?
Good quality stainless steel should never rust. I have noticed that the high iron content in our water causes red particles of iron oxide to remain on stainless steel vessels - and it looks exactly like rust but its just the iron in the water drying out on the stainless steel.
Will iron react with oxygen to produce rust?
Yes, iron will react with oxygen to produce iron oxide, commonly known as rust. This process occurs in the presence of water or moisture, which accelerates rust formation on iron surfaces.
