I plan on putting these in the bathroom, is there a good finish to them so the won't develop surface rust?

A stainless steel or a galvanized finish may be better in that application.

Based on my research, thes were the best for durability and finish. The defiant and gatehouse brands don't hold up as well and often will get the rust build-up on the entire hinge after a few years. The National are a little more, I think it is worth it ( ad I'm happy so far)

You shouldn't experience any rust issues indoors. The finish is enough to protect it from rust for many, many years.

I bought a few sets of these and put them on a bedroom door and a bathroom. I haven't had much humidity yet (winter up here) so I can't really say how well the finish will hold up. They definitely look better than the cheap gold hinges that came with the door.

I haven't noticed any rust issues, but maybe you can spray paint or clear coat them.

They are not stainless steel but if you are concerned about rust mine is sitting in a sunroom that has a large spa. The humidity is high (70%+) and after 6 months I have seen no corrosion or rust.

Personally, I've accidentally left mine soaking in the sink for days before, hand-washed, and put them through the dishwasher about 10 times. So far, no rust at all.

I've had my curtain for almost 6 months and have seen no signs of rust yet. I also close the shower curtain fully after every shower, though, to allow even air-drying.

Bathroom should be fine. Mine is in a basement and its a little damp and cold. No issues and I have had it up for months. Also, I don't think the material is rust prone. Seems to be stainless steel but I am not certain.

Rust shouldn't be much of an issue if the bathroom is well ventilated; using the vent fan and maybe leaving the door cracked open so the steam of the hot water can escape the room. For an absolute guarantee of no rust in very steamy bathrooms it is an option to spray paint the entire towel rack with a clear coat.

That is exactly the reason I purchased them..no rust but they are extremely hard to get apart. Probably about half ended up crumbling to pieces when we pried apart. The ones that I am using on the shower curtain work great.

Have run these through countless washes, and never had any issues with rust. Hope this helps :)

Absolutely. I put them in the dishwasher a couple of times, but they look a lot better if you wash by hand. My didn't get rust spots, just water spots, which I don't like - the main reason I wash by hand.

These are "best you can buy" quality and I've not had any problem with them rusting. With normal care of washing, drying, and storing in the provided block, you should have any trouble with rusting or discoloring.

They are stainless steel, so no they will not rust. They are made in China.

I installed Kraus sink about 8 months ago. I think if you leave stopper sitting along side or inside on the surface part of sink it may rust. But the simple solution is to not leave it sitting on the sink. Otherwise the sink is great and may be the highlight of my kitchen. You won't find another farmhouse sink of this quality at this price.

The weights have a black finish, but I'm not sure if it would prevent rusting. That's a good question.

I have used mine for months and no rusting. I even run them through the dishwasher and they come out fine.

I have been using mine for months in a humid bathroom, hanging wet towels on them, and no signs of rust.
