There are many stainless steels. These alloys are formulated partly for corrosion resistance and partly for physical properties (shear strength, hardness, high-temperature strength, resistance to metal fatigue, etc.). All of them are resistant to corrosion by water and air. Some especially corrosion-resistant stainless steels (such as 316 stainless) are also resistant to highly corrosive acids such as hydrofluoric acid; most are not.
