| ❌ Mistake | ✅ Correct Approach |
|---|---|
| Using standard carbon steel fasteners which can lead to galvanic corrosion. | Always utilize 316 stainless steel or equivalent grade fasteners to maintain corrosion resistance and prevent premature failure. |
| Overheating during fabrication processes, which can compromise the stainless steel's corrosion resistance. | Employ controlled heat input during welding or forming operations, and consider post-fabrication passivation to restore the protective oxide layer. |
