| ❌ Mistake | ✅ Correct Approach |
|---|---|
| Using standard carbon steel cutting tools which can lead to iron contamination. | Utilize dedicated stainless steel cutting tools and maintain strict cleanliness protocols to prevent cross-contamination. |
| Inadequate post-weld cleaning leading to passivation failure. | Thoroughly clean and pickle all welds to restore the passive oxide layer for optimal corrosion resistance. |
