| ❌ Mistake | ✅ Correct Approach |
|---|---|
| Using standard steel fasteners without considering galvanic corrosion potential. | Employ stainless steel or similarly rated aluminum fasteners to prevent dissimilar metal corrosion, especially in marine or humid environments. |
| Applying excessive heat during welding or forming, leading to loss of temper and reduced mechanical properties. | Utilize controlled heat input and appropriate post-weld heat treatment or cold working methods to maintain the alloy's intended strength and temper. |
