| ❌ Mistake | ✅ Correct Approach |
|---|---|
| Using incorrect welding consumables for Aluminum 6061, leading to compromised joint integrity. | Consult AWS D1.2 or equivalent standards for recommended filler metals (e.g., ER4043 or ER5356) and proper welding procedures for Aluminum 6061. |
| Inadequate cleaning of the pipe ends prior to joining, resulting in weld porosity and reduced strength. | Thoroughly degrease and mechanically clean the pipe ends with stainless steel brushes dedicated to aluminum to prevent cross-contamination. |
