The heat needs to soak through the metal.

Annealing 1 4 aluminum sheet.

Item 241558 model 11256. The metal is heated 650 825f held for a good soak and then cooled very accurately at the rate of 50f per hour until the temperature is 400 500f depending on the alloy and then the rate of cooling is unimportant. 1 4 inch 6 x12 aluminum sheet 6061 t6 aluminum tooling flat sheet plate bar mill stock. 4 8 out of 5 stars 41.

Annealing heat treatable aluminum alloys is accomplished again by heating and cooling but in a different procedure. Rmp 6061 t6 aluminum sheet 12 inch x 12 inch x 0 125 inch 2 pack. Aluminum also spelled aluminium is one of the most widespread and popular metals on the planet. Here the profile is being cut with a metal cutting blade in a jig saw.

Ryerson offers heat treatable aluminum sheet grades like the popular 6061 aluminum alloy that can be used for commercial applications that require strength corrosion resistance and machinability as well as non heat treatable grades when formability and weldability are priorities. This technique also only works on sheet metal or very thin parts. Aluminum sheet metal comes in a variety of thicknesses and weights in many different grades.
