| ❌ Mistake | ✅ Correct Approach |
|---|---|
| Using a lower grade of stainless steel for high-corrosion environments. | Always specify 316 stainless steel for applications involving chlorides, saltwater, or aggressive chemicals to prevent premature corrosion and component failure. |
| Inadequate surface preparation before installation. | Thoroughly clean and degrease the sheet and mating surfaces to ensure proper adhesion and prevent galvanic corrosion or contamination. |
