| ❌ Mistake | ✅ Correct Approach |
|---|---|
| Using standard carbon steel cutting tools which can lead to carbide precipitation and reduced corrosion resistance. | Employ stainless steel-specific cutting tools and lubricants to maintain the integrity of the material's passivation layer. |
| Improper handling causing surface scratches that can initiate corrosion points. | Use protective films during handling and fabrication, and polish surfaces after any abrasive processes. |
