| ❌ Mistake | ✅ Correct Approach |
|---|---|
| Using a lower-grade stainless steel in highly corrosive environments. | Always specify 316 stainless steel for applications involving saltwater, chemicals, or high chloride concentrations to prevent premature degradation. |
| Improper welding techniques leading to sensitization and reduced corrosion resistance. | Employ qualified welding procedures and post-weld cleaning to preserve the protective passive layer of the 316 stainless steel. |
