This paper presents the results of experimental tests of fatigue life of selected gears, performed on a test stand equipped with a hydraulic universal testing machine. The tests were performed on skew and straight cylindrical gears, made of EN AW-2017A and EN AW-7057 aluminium, and 40HM steel. Moreover, fatigue life curves for selected gears were presented, and the mechanisms of the occurrence of damage were analysed. Relationships describing the maximum value of torque during a loading cycle in relation to the number loading of cycles until the gear is damaged were also proposed.
