Stainless steel, BUT not stainless

Happy woman, happy life, as the saying goes. While browsing for relief suggestions, this stainless steel rolling pin popped up, so I bought one for my wife. It arrived today in incredibly fast Revain shipping. I open the shipping box, then the rolling pin box, which works fine. The eye-catching rolling pin has been removed. It has a nice bold look despite being a hollow tube that is welded/appeared at the ends. It measures 1.5 inches in diameter and 15 inches in length. The description of the item states that it is "stainless steel". Soooo, as a welder and metalworker, I tested it with a good old reliable magnet. Result. The magnet stuck to it hard, like a bug to a windshield. Now you understand, when something says 'stainless steel', it doesn't always mean it's solid stainless steel, and it doesn't mean all of its properties belong to stainless steel, which is primarily a composite metal made up of various other metals that are part of it is chrome and nickel. second base metal. Stainless steel is also grade #304, the highest grade with the highest chromium content (17-18%) and nickel at 8-10%. So a magnet that sticks to that roller pin means it also has a percentage of carbon in it, so the magnet sticks to it. The point is this. The rolling pin works and works better when chilled or put in the freezer for a while before using it on warm dough, which is why I bought it. As for cleaning, you just need to be careful not to leave this rolling pin in the water for a long time. When you're done with that, either wipe dry or wash and dry and you'll be fine. Much luck
