| ❌ Mistake | ✅ Correct Approach |
|---|---|
| Using generic fasteners not rated for aluminum alloys, leading to galvanic corrosion. | Utilize fasteners made of compatible materials (e.g., stainless steel with isolation washers) or specifically designed for aluminum applications. |
| Overheating the material during welding, causing loss of temper and reduced mechanical properties. | Employ proper welding procedures, including preheating and post-weld heat treatment if necessary, to maintain the alloy's integrity. |
