Will the metal on this rust with saltwater?

The spring steel clip that attaches to the head band or helmet attachment would rust in salt water . As far as the light housing itself there are no rust-able parts.

I have had mine at the beach camping and have had no issues. I rinsed it off with fresh water after being submersed. Not sure about long term emersion though.

Even stainless steel can rust in salt water, so to answer your question YES it will if you don't take care of your kit...

If not cared for correctly it sure will but with proper care I've had no issues.

It does list "Marine" usage as a market for this light. I have found that most screws on lights like this will think of rusting though, as they are almost all a regular steel. The pocket clip looks like fairly standard but tough spring steel that looks like a black oxide finish. I suspect it would consider rusting as well.Recommend calling streamlight.

Yes, it should do a good job. However, I don't know if it is resistant to salt water corrosion. You might want to clean it off and dry it before you put it back in storage.

Not at all. I live on the salt marsh in Savannah. I purchased the shelving unit last fall. Assembled it in my garage where it has been since then and there is no sign of rust or any corroding. I love the portability and convenience and especially the price!!! I would recmend it to anyone!

Nope, cast iron will rust if put in water. I suggest a different kind of steamer.

No! I even leave a little water in it from time to time and no rust so far. I've had it for months & couldn't be happier.

It is very strong and lightweight. Seems to be made from stainless steel and aluminum but I don't know for sure. We use it in rocks and mud. I think it would be fine in salt water, maybe rinse it off after with fresh water.

Yes. Absolutely. You will need to rinse it off with fresh water. As you know salt water will corrode it if it is not cleaned after each use.MarineHQ

It should not rust, however, be careful that you wipe off the padded seat so it doesn't soak up too much water.

Sorry can't help you ...but stainless is not suppose to rust ?.. unless its around salt water etc ...? and even then, depending on what type of stainless it is .. I have not used it in that application so I can't really say. Its is very durable finish ( if done I would suggest only spraying it and doing multiple coats). At least 3

my guess is a pool with chlorine will not make it rust, but I'm not 100% sure. salt water pool maybe, but a chlorine pool isn't a salt water pool.

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

Salt water is where I am using my bag and have seen no rust in the time since purchased the bag { 2 months } after a fishing trip, I rinse everything with fresh water.

Our family has had this stainless pattern for 8 years and no rust! Have not heard it will rust unless you would leave it in an open container outside near the ocean where you have corrosion from saltwater...not to worry!

Ive had mine for a year now but don't live in a salty area. However I never cover it and have yet to have a problem. If you keep it covered when not in use you shoul be okay. Not all the parts are stainless steel so over time I'm sure they will rust. A helpful hint. Ash of any kind when mixed with water or any moister will cause rust. Cean the inside on a regular bases and lay a little stainless polish on it from time to time and you should be okay.

I have the inflatable ring so no pool rust. I had to get a new pool last year because of storm damage and i did notice that ladder had more rust than the previous one. Can't say it was the saltwater because it was the outside screws. Parts that go in the pool are plastic. Frame of the ladder that is metal is good to go.

On the GoPole website (http://www.gopole.com/product/gopole-reach) they say that this model, the REACH, is salt and fresh waterproof and that it will not rust.

The only exposed metal part is the spring...still I would be reluctant to use it in a salt water system.
