The results of studying the microstructure, mechanical and electrical properties of the UFG alloy Cu-0.5wt.% Cr, obtained by equal-channel angular pressing (ECAP), followed by cold rolling and subjected to aging, are presented. It was found that, as a result, the average size of the fragmented structure is 160 nm. The results showed that the tensile strength increases with increasing degree of deformation. The maximum strength value of 605 MPa was achieved after a combination of 8 ECAP passes followed by rolling by 95%, while ductility was reduced to 13%. The number of ECAP passes and subsequent rolling practically do not affect the electrical conductivity and is 34-39% of IACS.
