| ❌ Mistake | ✅ Correct Approach |
|---|---|
| Using standard carbon steel in corrosive environments. | Always specify 316 stainless steel for environments prone to moisture, salt, or chemical exposure to prevent premature corrosion and failure. |
| Improper welding of stainless steel, leading to reduced corrosion resistance. | Employ TIG or MIG welding with appropriate filler materials and post-weld cleaning procedures specifically for 316 stainless steel to maintain its passivation layer. |
