| ❌ Mistake | ✅ Correct Approach |
|---|---|
| Using standard carbon steel tools for cutting or grinding, leading to iron contamination and reduced corrosion resistance. | Utilize dedicated stainless steel cutting and grinding tools to maintain the integrity of the 316 alloy. |
| Inadequate cleaning after fabrication, allowing corrosive residues to remain on the surface. | Thoroughly clean the fabricated component with a mild detergent and water, followed by a rinse and dry to remove all residues. |
