Which type of stainless steel best suits my project? 

Both 300-series and 400-series stainless steel screws excel in corrosion resistance and strength, though to varying extents.

300-series stainless steel screws offer superior corrosion resistance compared to 400-series steels, with 316 even outperforming 304. In turn, these steel styles tend to be costlier. Conversely, 400-series stainless steels like 410 provide greater strength and hardness than their 300-series counterparts while generally costing less.

Also consider whether a bi-metal solution—like our Bi-Met 300® series—may be the most fitting option, as this screw leverages both the corrosion resistance of 304 SS with the hardness of carbon steels for the ultimate screw capable of dissimilar connections.
