In the present investigation, an equal channel angular extrusion (ECAE) was used to make bulk nanostructure of the commercially available aluminum alloy AA1050 at room temperature. In order to investigate the effect of the ECAE routes on formability, three different routes A, Bc, and C were applied up to three passes by employing a split die set-up, which required less extrusion load compared with the conventional dies. Formability of the conventional and ultra-fine grained specimens was measured by applying a compression test. Considering the formability obtained from the compression test, bolt forming sequences were developed into three stages and applied to manufacture a high strength bolt using a cylindrical ultra-fine grained specimen at room temperature. The effects of processing routes and number of passes in the ECAE on strength increase and its homogeneity in the manufactured bolts were investigated by the tension and microhardness test, respectively. According to this investigation, a novel approach to utilize the ECAE to manufacture high strength bolt using the conventional material is demonstrated. This approach can be extended to other manufacturing parts that require high strength and lesser weight at a competitive manufacturing cost. (C) 2010 Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved.
