Note that contrary to what was posted on here previously, the Steel Armor set has nothing to do with Alon's Escort Quest. I never did the Escort Quest (didn't see it on a board, despite maxing his Affinity early on) and on reaching Stage 7 today and checking Alon's Stock, all the Steel Armor was there.

Checking another source also supported this, further stating that a high Affinity level was also a requirement for the Steel Armor showing up once Stage 7 had been reached.
