Stainless steel is coated in a Zinc Chromium alloy which oxidises and creates a protective layer covering the steel and preventing it from rusting. stainless steel doesn't corrode because it's coated in chromium nickel.
A ceramic of plastic towel bar will never corrode, a stainless steel bar will likely not corrode either.
Short answer - yes. Even stainless steel can rust in fresh water, given enough time and chemistry of the water.
In technical terms, it is also known by the name of inox or inox steel. It is an alloy of steel, with a minimum of 10.7% of chromium content. It does not quickly disintegrate, corrode or tint when it comes in contact with water, which is the case with ordinary steel. Though it is called "Stainless", however, it is not 100% stain proof.
whichever substance that neutralises or reacts with chromic oxide will corrode stainless steel. search for chemical properties of chromic oxide. stainless steel is considered as a "corrosion resistant alloy" that means that is more resistant than the common steel to corrosion. a typical corrosion reaction is when stainless steel is incontact with fluid that contains chlorides, like seawater, and small pit are produced.
No, gypsum does not corrode stainless steel.
u.s.
No
Stainless steel does not corrode like other metals do. because of the tannic acid in cedar and the fact that it will be outdoors stainless steel will resist corrision much better.

In some cases yes. If the stainless steel was not passified (removing iron particles left on stainless steel by contact with tool steel dies) with nitric or sulfuric acid then yes.

Iron (Iron is the only pure metal that rusts, all other metals corrode)
Short answer - yes. Even stainless steel can rust in fresh water, given enough time and chemistry of the water.
Stainless steel tubing is used to transport liquid materials, such as water, gas, and chemicals. It is important in manufacturing as well as water treatment because it will not rust or corrode.
Aluminum. The current DOD (Dept of Defense) dog tag spec calls for stainless steel military dog tags. Stainless steel is durable and will not corrode.
