Optimizing Bendability with 6063-T6 Aluminum Alloy

T52 temper may introduce challenges with smaller radii. Heating and bending are potential solutions. Alternatively, contemplating lower tempers like T1 or the extremely soft 6063-O (fully annealed) becomes a viable strategy.

T52, being artificially aged from the T1 state, involves a trade-off between hardness reduction and strength.
