| ❌ Mistake | ✅ Correct Approach |
|---|---|
| Using standard carbon steel fasteners with 316 stainless steel, leading to galvanic corrosion. | Always use 316 stainless steel or similarly rated fasteners to maintain the corrosion resistance of the entire assembly. |
| Insufficient edge preparation before welding, resulting in compromised weld integrity. | Ensure all edges are clean, free from contaminants, and properly beveled as per welding procedure specifications before initiating the weld. |
