| ❌ Mistake | ✅ Correct Approach |
|---|---|
| Using standard carbon steel tools for cutting or fabrication. | Always use dedicated stainless steel cutting tools and techniques to prevent cross-contamination and maintain the integrity of the passivation layer. |
| Inadequate cleaning after fabrication, especially in corrosive environments. | Thoroughly clean the fabricated part after all operations to remove any residual oils, lubricants, or metal particles that could initiate corrosion. |
