In this work aluminium based silicon carbide composite material with different percentage of silicon carbide and magnesium has been fabricated. Various tests such as XRF, hardness test, roughness test, tensile test, compressive test have been conducted to determine the various properties of the composite material. From the various tests it has been observed that with the addition of silicon carbide the hardness of composite material increases. This material is suitable for the manufacturing of gears for low and medium load application.
