| Aug 18, 2017 at 14:47 | comment | added | Ross Millikan | @DmitryGrigoryev: it is actually about the crystal structure. All stainless has a fair amount of chromium, which forms the oxide coat. The most common magentic stainless has little nickel while 304 has 10%. I had a case of a 302, which is usually nonmagnetic, tank that had been cryostretched and changed to martensitic crystals. It was nicely magnetic. | |

| Aug 17, 2017 at 22:37 | comment | added | Shannon Severance | @tuskiomi, OP does not have an induction heater from a refiner, but an induction cooktop. Most induction cooktops do require a pan that a magnet can stick to to work. Typical induction cookers operate at switching frequency between 25 kHz and 50 kHz. In this regime, induction cookers are only able to couple with ferromagnetic cookware, such as cast iron and some alloys of stainless steel. aceee.org/files/proceedings/2014/data/papers/9-702.pdf However Panasonic has introduced an "all metal" induction cooktop that operates at 120kHz, business.panasonic.com/KY-MK3500.html | |

| Aug 17, 2017 at 15:37 | comment | added | tuskiomi | @RossMillikan a pan does not need to be magnetic to work on an induction range. Induction heaters are used to heat up elements like gold and platinum in refineries without a hitch. | |
| Aug 17, 2017 at 15:31 | comment | added | JimmyJames | @RossMillikan Good point. Given that I recently purchased an stainless fridge that magnets won't stick to, I should have realized that. | |
| Aug 17, 2017 at 15:28 | comment | added | Ross Millikan | @JimmyJames: Stainless comes in magnetic and nonmagnetic forms. Before induction stoves stainless was generally not magnetic. Nonmagnetic stainless will not work. Now some stainless pans are using magnetic stainless for this reason. | |
