| ❌ Mistake | ✅ Correct Approach |
|---|---|
| Using standard carbon steel in corrosive environments. | Always select 316 stainless steel for applications exposed to moisture, chemicals, or coastal conditions to prevent premature corrosion and failure. |
| Improper handling leading to surface contamination. | Handle with clean gloves and tools to maintain the passive oxide layer and prevent galvanic corrosion initiation. |
