| ❌ Mistake | ✅ Correct Approach |
|---|---|
| Using inadequate fasteners for the load-bearing requirements. | Select fasteners specifically rated for the anticipated stress and the 6061 aluminum alloy to ensure structural integrity. |
| Not considering potential galvanic corrosion when in contact with dissimilar metals. | Implement isolation measures, such as dielectric barriers or coatings, when joining 6061 aluminum to materials like steel or copper to prevent corrosion. |
