Abstract: A method for manufacturing a cold-forged, extruded aluminum alloy tube includes the steps of: providing a primary material having a hollow columnar shape and made of an aluminum alloy material, and a first cold extrusion apparatus; processing the primary material to form a preform; subjecting the preform to a homogeneous annealing by heating to a temperature of about 410° C. to 510° C. and then cooling to a temperature of about 160° C. to 200° C.; testing the hardness of the preform; immersing the preform in a tank containing lubricant having a total acidity concentration of 40 to 50 mg/L at a working temperature of 80° C. to 100° C.; and subjecting the preform to cold extrusion.
