| ❌ Mistake | ✅ Correct Approach |
|---|---|
| Using standard carbon steel fasteners which can lead to galvanic corrosion. | Always utilize 316 stainless steel or other compatible high-grade fasteners to maintain the integrity of the assembly. |
| Contaminating the surface with iron or carbon steel particles during cutting or handling. | Maintain a clean work environment and use dedicated tools for stainless steel to prevent surface contamination and subsequent rust formation. |
