| ❌ Mistake | ✅ Correct Approach |
|---|---|
| Using incorrect cutting tools that can induce work hardening and reduce corrosion resistance. | Utilize carbide-tipped or diamond-coated cutting tools specifically designed for stainless steel to minimize heat buildup and maintain material integrity. |
| Contamination of the surface with carbon steel particles during handling or fabrication. | Implement strict segregation protocols for stainless steel and ensure all tools and work surfaces are meticulously cleaned before contact. |
