| ❌ Mistake | ✅ Correct Approach |
|---|---|
| Using incorrect cutting tools, leading to material damage or contamination. | Utilize dedicated stainless steel cutting blades (e.g., abrasive cut-off wheels or carbide-tipped blades) and ensure they are clean and free of debris from other metals. |
| Inadequate surface preparation before welding or bonding, resulting in compromised joint integrity. | Thoroughly degrease and clean the weld area using appropriate solvents and mechanical methods to remove any oils, dirt, or oxide layers. For welding, use TIG or MIG processes with dedicated 316 filler materials. |
