Good Morning,

Can an Aluminum Alloy sheet MRS quality, lose its property after a heat treatment?

Thank you

I am not familiar with the MRS acronym that you are referring to.
But I can say that heat treatment will affect the properties of aluminum sheet.

That is WHY aluminum is heat-treated after all.

If you would care to give some more detail about what property concerns you, my answer can be more specific.

bsdimair,

I would guess that all aluminium sheet used for any structural purpose either is heat treated or work hardened. If you heat it up again, you lose all that.
