| ❌ Mistake | ✅ Correct Approach |
|---|---|
| Using incompatible fasteners that can lead to galvanic corrosion. | Always select fasteners made of 304 stainless steel or a compatible alloy to prevent galvanic corrosion and ensure long-term integrity. |
| Insufficient edge preparation, leading to stress concentrations. | Ensure all cut edges are deburred and smoothly finished to avoid initiating cracks or reducing the material's fatigue life. |
