| ❌ Mistake | ✅ Correct Approach |
|---|---|
| Using standard stainless steel in highly corrosive environments. | Always specify 316 stainless steel for applications exposed to chlorides, saltwater, or aggressive chemicals to prevent premature corrosion and failure. |
| Inadequate surface preparation before lubrication system integration. | Thoroughly clean and degrease all surfaces to ensure optimal lubricant adhesion and prevent particle contamination within the lubrication system. |
