| ❌ Mistake | ✅ Correct Approach |
|---|---|
| Using standard carbon steel cutting tools which can cause contamination and reduce corrosion resistance. | Utilize dedicated stainless steel cutting tools and maintain a clean work environment to prevent ferrous contamination. |
| Incorrect welding procedures leading to sensitization and reduced corrosion resistance in heat-affected zones. | Employ qualified welding procedures for 316 stainless steel, such as TIG or MIG welding with appropriate filler materials, and consider post-weld heat treatment if necessary. |
