Yes, stainless steel can set off a metal detector, but it typically depends on the type and composition of the stainless steel. Most metal detectors are designed to detect various metals, including ferrous and non-ferrous types, and stainless steel, being an alloy, can be detected, though it may not trigger the alarm as strongly as more magnetic metals like iron. The sensitivity of the metal detector and the size of the stainless steel object also play significant roles in whether it will set off an alarm.

Hope this helped!Answer 2:Most metaldetectors can be tuned to react on various different metals and sizes of metal objects.Braces may set it off, but it is not likly to do this because there is such a small amount of metal in them.Metaldetectors at airports react on all metals. but they have a threshold of when to beep or not beep.It depends on factors like securitylevel where this threshold is put.In times of extra high security level, you may experience the beeping when being cleared for travel at the airports.It is a myth that silver and stainless steel do not set off metal detectors.
Will bobby pins make a metal detector go off?
Yes, bobby pins can make a metal detector go off because they are made of metal, typically steel or aluminum. The sensitivity of the metal detector and the size of the bobby pin will determine how strongly it registers. In general, smaller metal objects like bobby pins may produce a weaker signal compared to larger metal items.

Will phone cases set off the metal detector at the airport?
If there is metal in the case it is possible that your phone case will set off the metal detector. It's always best to remove personal items before going through the metal detector. Unless the phone case has metal in it, it will most likely not go off in a metal detector. But, now airports have full body scanners and all personal items are asked to be removed.
