Weld Seam Cracks Poor welding, thermal or mechanical stress Certified ERW/TIG welding, stress-relief heat treatment, installation guidance
Pitting / Crevice Corrosion Debris, crevices, chemical exposure Clean, polished surfaces, use higher-grade SS, design advice to avoid stagnant areas
Scaling / Deposits Hard water, chemical residues Filtered water, regular maintenance, avoid dissimilar metals
Mechanical Damage Mishandling, impact, scratches Safe handling training, protected storage, pre-shipment inspection
