| ❌ Mistake | ✅ Correct Approach |
|---|---|
| Using incorrect welding rod for 304 stainless steel, compromising corrosion resistance. | Always use a welding rod specifically rated for 304 stainless steel (e.g., ER308L) to preserve the material's inherent protective oxide layer. |
| Inadequate post-weld cleaning, leading to potential surface contamination and rust. | Thoroughly clean all weld areas and surrounding surfaces with appropriate stainless steel cleaners and decontaminants to remove any foreign particles or flux residue. |
