The deformability of brass L63 under equal-channel angular pressing (ECAP) after a preliminary heat treatment (annealing at 600°C or quenching from different temperatures) is studied. The ECAP is conducted at room and elevated temperatures. It is shown that ECAP of brass L63 is possible only at elevated temperatures after preliminary annealing.
