| ❌ Mistake | ✅ Correct Approach |
|---|---|
| Using standard carbon steel fasteners with 316 stainless steel components, leading to galvanic corrosion. | Always utilize fasteners made from 316 stainless steel or other compatible alloys to maintain the corrosion resistance of the entire assembly. |
| Introducing contaminants during fabrication that can compromise the passive oxide layer. | Maintain clean work areas and use dedicated tools for stainless steel fabrication to prevent iron contamination and subsequent rust. |
