| ❌ Mistake | ✅ Correct Approach |
|---|---|
| Using standard carbon steel for corrosive pneumatic environments. | Always select 316 stainless steel or an equivalent alloy for applications exposed to chlorides, acids, or other aggressive media to prevent premature failure due to corrosion. |
| Improper welding procedures leading to sensitization and reduced corrosion resistance. | Employ low-heat input welding techniques and consider post-weld annealing if required by the specific application to maintain the inherent corrosion resistance of the 316 stainless steel. |
