Will this wire rust?

Yes, even high carbon steel will rust in the right conditions. However, I have been using it in a cheese slicer, including dishwasher cleaning, and have not had any rust form.

Yes. It must certainly can. I have kept my application clean and dry and have had no issues. I will apply a light coat of oil if I need to store for any length of time in the garage or shed.

Yes, it's my understanding this wire is rated to be buried in the ground. I buried mine several months ago and have had no problems.

I would assume, like any metal object, if it gets wet or put in any moist area, it will rust. My suggestion to you is: if you need something for outside, stick with plastic.

I have had mine for more than a year, use it at least once daily, and have never had any problems with rust.

No rust yet, but I've owned this rod for a little over a month. I wish I could be more help. Good Luck.

I have not had any problems with rust. After I use it, I rinse it under the faucet and throw it in the drain rack. I had my first one for 15 years and have had this one for 9 months. I love it!

I honestly don't know, but I'm assuming that it would definitely scratch up the outer coating and might fray the metal wire inside after repeated use. Just my opinion though.

Might be for a little while. The wire connector in the back would probably corrode pretty fast.

I have mine in a corner of the kitchen, but it seems to have a powder coat of bronze paint all over, so I think it may not rust.

The wire is stainless steel, however even that will pit in an acid environment. I've gotten pitting in my steel pans from wine sauces or vinegar so there's no escaping it. I would be certain to rinse after using and wash promptly. I certaining wouldn't leave it (or any metal material) in an acid environment for long.

None of the packaging indicates that it is - but the way that the wires are sealed at the handle certainly seem to be a good solution for rust. Other whisks I've used have the wires wrapped in a wire coil. This always traps water and leads to rust. This whisk is not made that way so eliminates that problem.

I'm not sure. Mine is outside and we've had a lot of rain.....so far no rust.

Don't get it too wet the electronics inside rust I used it under my awning for over a year no problems you can point it on a angle down away from cloth the awning helps hold the heat I use two of them on a 20 amp circuit with no problem

Hard to say. The craftsmanship of the product is brilliant, but under h20? Thick vinyl coating coats entire wire unless ends are exposed to moisture then rust or corrosion will occur. What of project are you considering it for?

I have had no problem with rusting, just be sure to care for it properly after each use.

Mine has not rusted, but it stays in my linen closet (away from moisture) most of the time and I don't put wet items in it.

Not sure, but would think not bc it has batteries in it and it's brass. Weather might cause batteries to rust.
