| ❌ Mistake | ✅ Correct Approach |
|---|---|
| Using incompatible fasteners that can cause galvanic corrosion. | Utilize fasteners made from materials compatible with aluminum, such as stainless steel (300 series) or aluminum alloys, to prevent galvanic corrosion. |
| Excessive heat during welding, leading to loss of temper and reduced strength. | Employ controlled welding techniques with appropriate preheating and post-weld heat treatment if necessary to maintain the mechanical properties of the 6061 alloy. |
