Common Mistakes & How to Avoid Them

❌ Mistake✅ Correct Approach
Using general-purpose fasteners not rated for aluminum alloys.Utilize fasteners specifically designed for aluminum or compatible materials to prevent galvanic corrosion and ensure secure fastening.
Inadequate weld preparation leading to porosity or weak welds.Thoroughly clean and degrease the weld joint. Use appropriate filler material and shielding gas (e.g., Argon) for 6061 aluminum.
