| ❌ Mistake | ✅ Correct Approach |
|---|---|
| Incorrect fastener selection, leading to galvanic corrosion or insufficient clamping force. | Utilize fasteners made of compatible materials (e.g., stainless steel, or other aluminum alloys) and apply torque values specified in engineering drawings to prevent over-stressing the sheet. |
| Improper welding procedures for Aluminum 6061, resulting in compromised joint strength or porosity. | Employ certified welding procedures specifically for Aluminum 6061, utilizing appropriate filler metals (e.g., 4043 or 5356) and shielding gases (e.g., Argon) with skilled welders. |
