| ❌ Mistake | ✅ Correct Approach |
|---|---|
| Using standard carbon steel fasteners in direct contact with 316 stainless steel. | Always use compatible stainless steel fasteners (e.g., 316 grade) to prevent galvanic corrosion and ensure long-term joint integrity. |
| Improper cleaning of the sheet before fabrication, leading to surface contamination. | Thoroughly degrease and clean the sheet surface with appropriate solvents and non-abrasive materials to remove any oils, dirt, or shop debris prior to cutting, bending, or welding. |
