Common Mistakes & How to Avoid Them

❌ Mistake✅ Correct Approach
Using improper welding techniques for 6061 aluminum, leading to weakened joints.Employ TIG or MIG welding with appropriate filler metals (e.g., 4043 or 5356) and preheating as recommended for 6061.
Failing to account for thermal expansion and contraction during fabrication and installation.Incorporate expansion joints or allowances in designs where significant temperature variations are expected.
