what other components make up steel, galvanized steel, and stainless steel?

Answer 1

Plain old steel has carbon mixed into the matrix, usually less than 1 percent.

Galvanized steel usually has a zinc plate adhered to it to prevent rust of the steel.

The stainless steels are mixtures of iron, carbon, cobalt and nickel. There are several types, each with a different composition.

Answer 2

Stainless steel is not galvanized. If you tried to galvanize it, that is when you would run into trouble. So just look for stainless steel as there is no such thing as galvanized stainless steel. Al
