Abstract—The attractive characteristics, strength as well as weight ratio makes the extensive research on Al-SiCp MMC is carried out globally because of it is widely used in automotive & aerospace industries. However, the behaviour of Al with different percentages of Sicp combined action together with wetting agents. The present study investigates with the mechanical properties and microstructure of Al-alloy with 5%, 10%, 15% weight of Sicp. The compositions were added up to the ultimate level at electrical furnace & used for the fabrication of the aluminium metal matrix composites. The fabricate material is to study of composition of Sicp. The fabricate material is to test on BHN, ROCKWELL, HARDNESS, TENSILE, TORSION, & IMPACT to get mechanical properties at different composition of SICp.
