Why can stainless steel standard parts absorb magnetism? What kind of material is it?

Answer:

Ferritic stainless steels and martensitic stainless steels themselves are magnetic, whether or not they are machined.Only through the analysis and identification of metal components can we know the specific quality of stainless steel. Naked observation is impossible to identify the specific stainless steel material.
Austenitic stainless steel, such as: 1Cr18Ni9Ti, without processing, do not have magnetism. But through the cutting board, bending, welding and other factors, so that the local material internal grain arrangement structure changes, the same will appear magnetic.
Only austenitic stainless steel, not in the process of processing is not magnetic. Other kinds of stainless steel are magnetic.
