| ❌ Mistake | ✅ Correct Approach |
|---|---|
| Using general-purpose stainless steel in highly corrosive environments. | Always specify 316 stainless steel for applications involving chlorides, acids, or elevated temperatures to prevent premature corrosion. |
| Improper welding practices leading to sensitization and reduced corrosion resistance. | Employ correct welding procedures, such as using 316L filler material or maintaining appropriate interpass temperatures, followed by post-weld heat treatment or passivation if necessary. |
