| ❌ Mistake | ✅ Correct Approach |
|---|---|
| Using standard stainless steel in corrosive environments. | Always specify 316 stainless steel for applications involving chlorides, salts, or acidic media common in industrial heating and cooling. |
| Improper welding leading to sensitization and reduced corrosion resistance. | Employ post-weld heat treatment or use low-carbon (316L) variants if full annealing is not feasible to maintain optimal corrosion properties. |
