| ❌ Mistake | ✅ Correct Approach |
|---|---|
| Using generic stainless steel in highly corrosive environments. | Always specify 316 stainless steel for applications exposed to saltwater, chemicals, or high humidity to prevent premature corrosion. |
| Inadequate lubrication for moving parts made from stainless steel. | Utilize high-performance lubricants specifically designed for stainless steel to maximize wear resistance and minimize friction. |
