| ❌ Mistake | ✅ Correct Approach |
|---|---|
| Using inappropriate fasteners that can lead to galvanic corrosion or stress concentration. | Employ fasteners made from compatible materials, such as stainless steel or materials with similar galvanic potential to Aluminum 6061, and ensure proper torque is applied. |
| Insufficient consideration of thermal expansion and contraction in system design. | Account for the coefficient of thermal expansion of Aluminum 6061 when designing the mounting and sealing mechanisms to prevent material stress or leakage. |
