| ❌ Mistake | ✅ Correct Approach |
|---|---|
| Using standard carbon steel tools for cutting or fabrication, leading to iron contamination and potential corrosion initiation. | Employ dedicated stainless steel tooling or ensure thorough cleaning of shared equipment before use. |
| Inadequate post-weld cleaning, leaving slag or heat tint that can reduce corrosion resistance. | Thoroughly clean all weld areas using mechanical methods (brushing, grinding) or pickling and passivation treatments. |
