| ❌ Mistake | ✅ Correct Approach |
|---|---|
| Using standard fasteners instead of those rated for stainless steel, leading to galvanic corrosion. | Always use fasteners made from compatible stainless steel grades (e.g., 304 or 316) or other corrosion-resistant materials to prevent galvanic corrosion. |
| Inadequate edge preparation for welding, resulting in weak or porous joints. | Ensure all edges are properly beveled and cleaned of any contaminants (oil, dirt, scale) before welding to achieve strong, defect-free welds. |
