| ❌ Mistake | ✅ Correct Approach |
|---|---|
| Using a lower grade stainless steel in corrosive environments. | Always select 316 stainless steel for marine, chemical, or high-humidity applications to prevent premature corrosion and failure. |
| Inadequate tightening of nuts. | Ensure nuts are tightened evenly and sufficiently to provide firm support without deforming the pipe or U-bolt. |
