![]() Iron oxide is what is left after the iron has oxidized. Stainless steel has chromium in it which is what prevents the rust. Studies on stainless steel cookware have found that the stainless steel leeches iron, chromium, and nickel. That's from utensils that don't appear rusted. I haven't looked into it, but I imagine cookware is a higher grade of stainless steel than clamps.
