| ❌ Mistake | ✅ Correct Approach |
|---|---|
| Using standard carbon steel fasteners which can lead to galvanic corrosion. | Always use 316 stainless steel or other compatible corrosion-resistant fasteners. |
| Inadequate cleaning of the surface after fabrication, leaving contaminants that can initiate corrosion. | Thoroughly clean all surfaces with a non-abrasive cleaner and rinse with deionized water to remove fabrication residues. |
