Premium Stainless Steel Snaps from The Scuba Doctor are heavy-duty, #316 series, stainless steel alloy suitable for marine applications. For long life and ease-of-use, the interior spring is also made of high quality 304 grade stainless steel. These premium quality stainless steel snaps are polished and passivated. Passivation treatments improve the surface condition of stainless steel by dissolving iron that has been embedded in the surface during forming. Although a cosmetic flaw only, if allowed to remain the iron will corrode and give the appearance of rust spots on the stainless steel. Passivation, which consists of immersing stainless steel components in a special acid solution, will dissolve most of the embedded iron and restore the original corrosion-resistant surface by forming a thin, transparent oxide film.
