Fatigue failure is one of the main reasons for the mechanical failure in engineering materials. To improve the fatigue strength of the material one of the most used method is surface treatment of the materials in which hardness, wear resistance and aesthetics is improved. In this paper a comparative study of fatigue of two different aluminium alloy [AA 5083-AA6062] was conducted. CT specimen of both the alloys was formed as per ASTM-E647 Standard. The result shows that the fatigue life of AA5083 greater than AA6062. In this paper fracture that occur in material during fatigue testing and effect of fatigue life on material is studied. The main purpose of the research presented herein was to study the fatigue crack propagation under loading mode I.
