| ❌ Mistake | ✅ Correct Approach |
|---|---|
| Using standard carbon steel fasteners with 316 stainless steel, leading to galvanic corrosion. | Always utilize 316 stainless steel or compatible high-grade alloy fasteners to maintain the corrosion resistance of the assembly. |
| Inadequate post-welding cleaning, leaving behind contaminants that can initiate corrosion. | Thoroughly clean all weld areas and surrounding surfaces using non-metallic brushes and appropriate passivation treatments to remove heat tint and embedded particles. |
