| ❌ Mistake | ✅ Correct Approach |
|---|---|
| Using standard carbon steel cutting tools without proper lubrication, leading to excessive heat and potential material degradation. | Utilize high-speed steel or carbide tooling with appropriate coolant and lubrication for cutting and machining 316 stainless steel to minimize heat buildup and maintain material integrity. |
| Improper cleaning after welding, leaving slag or heat tint that can compromise the corrosion resistance of the weld area. | Thoroughly clean the weld area post-fabrication using mechanical methods (e.g., grinding, brushing) followed by passivation to restore the chromium oxide layer and ensure optimal corrosion resistance. |
