| ❌ Mistake | ✅ Correct Approach |
|---|---|
| Using incompatible welding consumables, leading to reduced joint strength. | Employ 4043 or 5356 aluminum filler metals for welding Aluminum 6061. |
| Insufficient consideration of thermal expansion in design, causing stress build-up. | Account for the coefficient of thermal expansion of Aluminum 6061 (approx. 23.6 µm/m·°C) during the design phase, incorporating expansion joints where necessary. |
