The main reason is due to its durability some people have stainless steel sets for years and they still look brand new.
What is better ceramic coating or stainless steel.
It s durable eliminates static and prevents clothes from sticking to it at high heat.
In terms of durability and corrosion resistance stainless wins over mild steel headers that are coated only externally with ceramic.
They don t rust so the coating won t flake off like it can on mild steel headers.
Ceramic coating stainless headers is the best way to go.
If you need to heat a pot of boiling water you can get there faster with a nonstick pot.
Ceramic is a good conductor of heat and helps to distribute it evenly across the surface it covers.
This might sometimes result in slower cooking as well.
Stainless steel is relatively heavy while the ceramic coating weighs a little more compared to the teflon coating.
I had coated headers on my lt1 camaro and like one of the other posters accidentally bumped into one of the primaries with my hand after the engine had run for some time.
Steel on the other hand is much tougher that way and can be used at any heat without causing much damage to the vessel.
Ceramic cookware is best used at low to medium heat to protect its delicate non stick coating.
I also agree with the lower temps.
Headers coated inside and out with ceramic should last just this side of forever or at least comparable to stainless.
In any case ceramic is never going to hurt power.
There is no need to worry about having an accident because steel won t dent if it falls from the counter.
