A general rule of thumb is that if the SS snap #1 costs a few bucks more than SS snap #2 it's probably a higher grade stainless. With the exception of some 4.5inch monsters, I've bought most of my SS snaps from "Ace" or "Home Depot" and they are still rocking several years later. You simply need to spend a few minutes shopping; most hardware stores carry the high-grade stainless but you have to be a discerning shopper.
