| ❌ Mistake | ✅ Correct Approach |
|---|---|
| Using standard carbon steel tools for cutting or welding, which can lead to contamination and reduced corrosion resistance. | Always use dedicated stainless steel tooling and welding equipment to prevent cross-contamination and maintain the integrity of the 316 stainless steel. |
| Improper post-fabrication cleaning, leaving behind metal particles or residues that can compromise the material's corrosion resistance. | Thoroughly clean and passivate the fabricated components after all mechanical work is completed to remove any embedded iron particles and restore the protective oxide layer. |
