| ❌ Mistake | ✅ Correct Approach |
|---|---|
| Using lower grade stainless steel in corrosive environments. | Always specify 316 stainless steel for applications exposed to chlorides, acids, or saltwater for optimal corrosion resistance. |
| Inadequate edge preparation after cutting. | Thoroughly deburr all cut edges to prevent stress risers and potential failure points in the fabricated component. |
