| ❌ Mistake | ✅ Correct Approach |
|---|---|
| Using standard carbon steel in corrosive environments. | Always specify 316 stainless steel for applications exposed to chlorides or acidic conditions to prevent premature corrosion and failure. |
| Improper welding techniques leading to sensitization. | Employ low-heat input welding and post-weld annealing where critical to maintain the corrosion resistance of the 316 stainless steel. |
