An illustrative embodiment of the invention prevents strip work from "fluttering" and "canoeing" by establishing spaces of static high pressure fluid on both sides of the strip. Preferably, jets of pressurized fluid form the periphery of each of the static high pressure spaces. The jets and the static pressure thus formed, push the adjacent portion of the strip work back toward an equilibrium position with an increasing force as the strip comes closer to the jets in order to restore a well-balanced condition on both sides of the strip that eliminates fluttering and canoeing. This technique can be used in a cooling zone to heat treat the strip work, for example, in a continuous annealing furnace.
