| ❌ Mistake | ✅ Correct Approach |
|---|---|
| Using lower grade stainless steel in corrosive environments. | Always specify 316 stainless steel for its enhanced molybdenum content, which significantly improves corrosion resistance in challenging applications. |
| Improper edge finishing leading to premature wear. | Thoroughly deburr and smooth all cut edges to prevent micro-abrasions and ensure optimal lubrication flow. |
