| ❌ Mistake | ✅ Correct Approach |
|---|---|
| Using a less conductive material for heat dissipation. | Always specify aluminum alloys with high thermal conductivity, such as 6061, for applications requiring efficient heat transfer. |
| Ignoring the impact of alloy temper on mechanical properties. | Verify the alloy temper (e.g., T6) is suitable for the intended mechanical stresses and fabrication processes. |
