| ❌ Mistake | ✅ Correct Approach |
|---|---|
| Using standard carbon steel fasteners which will corrode and compromise the integrity of the 316 stainless steel system. | Always use 316 stainless steel or other compatible high-grade fasteners to prevent galvanic corrosion. |
| Improper welding techniques leading to sensitization and reduced corrosion resistance in the heat-affected zone. | Employ TIG or MIG welding with appropriate filler materials and controlled heat input, or consider post-weld annealing for critical applications. |
