I would think the rubber bits are for the brackets and fender for vibration, also stainless steel very much tarnishes and rusts. People who just spent $100K on the new Tesla cyber truck, are complaining about rust and tarnish spots.

Fenders look good, but I hooe you don't have a blowout on one of the tires....but you don't use re-caps, so hopefully it wont be a problem. A blowout will wad those fenders up with re-treads. The fenders will help keep some of the road grime from getting all over the truck.

The best Stainless is 316L. Almost 0 carbon in its makeup. 304 has small amounts of carbon in its makeup. 308 has more carbon and so on. Your SS fenders 430 so typically the carbon is 0.08 to 0.12 percent. The more carbon in the material means you might see some rust spots developing. So keep them waxed.
@byronmill
@byronmill 3 ай бұрын
The carbon content has only a small effect on corrosion resistance, it is mostly the alloys added, particularly chromium and nickel. 430 stainless steel does not have nickel content, but it still has very effective corrosion resistance. This is not a very difficult application as far as corrosion. 430 stainless is significantly less expensive than 300 grades, and is often used in these type of applications. It is magnetic because it has a different crystalline structure than 300 grade stainless, not for any other reason. All stainless steel is subject to corrosion in the heat affected zone of a weld, mainly due to chromium depletion. Proper passivation of the area after welding will restore the chromium oxide layer and prevent "rust".
@coastaldavhawthorne5891
@coastaldavhawthorne5891 3 ай бұрын
My comment on addressed the small carbon content in the 430 grade material. The carbon does not prevent rust it makes it happen if there’s enough of it present. Your comment about the welding is correct. Robert mentioned the weld which had rusted. So they did do a good job there when fabricated. SS is brittle, 316 when pulled will just break with almost no elongation at 90,000 psi.

They are 304 stainless which is the most commin and ine of the lrast expensive alloys. It has a lower nickle content than 403 or other grades. And yes staunkess steel will rust depending on the alloy that it is.
