I was curious what is the eccentric shaft made out of. Is it stainless steel, steel, or aluminum? Thank you.

You can narrow it down to NOT stainless and NOT aluminum because it Rusts.

The eccentric shaft (along with all other crankshafts in the world) is made out of steel. Now what alloy it is made out of, I have no idea.
