304 stainless steel (18% chromium and 8% nickel) is a common, high-quality stainless steel material on the market, offering strong corrosion resistance and relatively good scratch resistance. However, some lower-quality stainless steel sinks may use 201 stainless steel or other lower-grade materials, which have lower hardness and scratch resistance and are therefore susceptible to scratches from hard objects.
