| ❌ Mistake | ✅ Correct Approach |
|---|---|
| Using standard carbon steel fasteners which can lead to galvanic corrosion when in contact with 316 stainless steel. | Utilize 316 stainless steel fasteners or other compatible high-grade alloys to maintain material integrity and prevent premature failure. |
| Insufficient edge preparation prior to welding, leading to weld porosity or incomplete fusion. | Ensure all edges are properly beveled and cleaned of any oxides, grease, or other contaminants before commencing welding operations. |
