You cannot have a general answer for this. The comparison in strength depends on the chemical composition or grade of each, as well as the heat treatment and quenching method each received.
It heavily depends on which type of stainless steel you're referring to and what your definition of strong is. High carbon and perhaps plain carbon steels would be harder then austenite and ferritic stainless, but martensitic stainless would be harder then plain/high carbon. Austenite and ferritic stainless would be tougher and austenite would have have highest degree of corrosion resistance. I consider a steel to be "strong" if it has a balance of hardness and toughness in which case,I would say martensitic stainless steels.
high tensile stainless steel
No, 4037 steel is not a 300 series stainless steel. The 300 series refers to austenitic stainless steels, which are known for their corrosion resistance and high levels of chromium and nickel. Examples include 304 and 316 stainless steels. In contrast, 4037 is an alloy steel that contains chromium, molybdenum, and manganese, but it is not classified as stainless steel. When selecting materials and components for applications requiring specific properties such as corrosion resistance or strength, it's important to choose the right type. Brands like unikeyic are known for producing high-quality electronic components, but when it comes to material selection for structural applications, consulting with a materials engineer or supplier would be advisable to ensure suitability for your specific needs.
high thermal expansion
High carbon steel is stronger than low carbon steel with proper heat treatment. Thus, it will fail at a much higher load. ------------------------------------------------------------- Note: not all shear pins are high carbon heat treated steel. The pin needs to be nearly as strong, but not stronger than the material in which it is used, so that it shears off before the material it protects is damaged. thus a shear pin for a bronze shaft may actually be made of copper. Obviously the stronger the material, or larger the diameter of the pin, the more load it can handle, but it needs to shear off before the material it protects is crushed. I'd assume that a high carbon steel shear pin is being used on a machine made of some high tensile strength stainless alloy.

Stainless steel
Stainless steel is a corrosion-resistant alloy primarily used in applications where resistance to rust and staining is important, such as in kitchen appliances and cutlery. High-speed steel is a type of tool steel used in cutting tools for machining metals at high speeds, due to its ability to retain hardness at elevated temperatures. Both materials have different compositions and are suited for different applications.
Stainless steel is generally stronger than most other materials, including aluminum and plastic. It has high tensile strength and can withstand heavy loads and pressure.
No, stainless steel does not burn under high temperatures.

While stainless steel is an alloy of steel, the primary difference between stainless steel and other steels is that the stainless steels have a high percentage (about 10% or even more) of the element chromium in them.
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.
The best way to cut stainless steel effectively and efficiently is to use a high-quality cutting tool, such as a plasma cutter or a high-speed abrasive saw. These tools are specifically designed to cut through stainless steel with precision and speed. Additionally, using the correct cutting technique, such as maintaining a steady cutting speed and applying the right amount of pressure, can help ensure a clean and accurate cut.
Stainless steel is a strong material because of its high tensile strength and resistance to corrosion. This is due to the presence of chromium in its composition, which forms a passive oxide layer on the surface that protects the steel from rust and other forms of degradation. Additionally, stainless steel can withstand high temperatures and has good durability, making it ideal for a wide range of applications.
For countersinking stainless steel at 82 degrees, it is recommended to use a single-flute countersink tool made from high-speed steel or cobalt. This type of tool will provide the necessary cutting force and durability to effectively countersink the stainless steel material without causing damage.
The best techniques for drilling stainless steel effectively and efficiently include using a sharp, high-speed drill bit specifically designed for stainless steel, using cutting fluid to lubricate and cool the drill bit, drilling at a slow speed with consistent pressure, and using a peck drilling technique to prevent overheating.
