[QUOTE="pigoo3, post: 1608078, member: 56379"] Are you suggesting that if the outdoor air temperature is 90°F…and if human "rear-end" temp. is 98.6°F…that this increase of 8.6°F will noticeably increase the pliability of aluminum? Or a 2nd scenario. If someone is indoors…and the ambient temp. in an air-conditioned room is 75°F. Are you suggesting that 98.6°F - 75°F = 23.6°F temp. difference is enough to noticeably increase the pliability of aluminum? Personally I don't think that this is enough of a temp. diff. to be significant. If you were referring to a different part (other than the aluminum body of the iPhone)…please mention.:) - Nick p.s. Just for fun;)…the melting point of aluminum is 1,221°F (660.3°C). [/QUOTE]
