| ❌ Mistake | ✅ Correct Approach |
|---|---|
| Using a lower grade of stainless steel in corrosive environments. | Always specify 316 stainless steel for applications involving saltwater, chemicals, or high temperatures where corrosion is a concern. |
| Improper welding techniques that can compromise corrosion resistance. | Utilize inert gas shielding (e.g., TIG welding with Argon) and appropriate filler materials to maintain the integrity of the passive layer. |
