[QUOTE="J.P., post: 275910, member: 5999"] both achieve resistance to corrosion through different processes.. galvanization leaves a coating of zinc which prevents corrosion on the steel, a scratched or worn out surface will expose the steel and rust will soon do it's work. stainless, on the other hand, has different alloys mixed in during manufacturing process, the composition is the same all throughout so if you cut/drill stainless it will still be stainless. both are available in varying grades/quality follow Buddychrist's advice and you can forget about your nuts and bolts for a couple of years.......
