Abstract: Study the properties of fly ash alumina reinforcement and prepared by using stir casting route method material. Constant weight of composite i. e. fly ash which is 3-100 m in size and Al2O3 at 150 m in size are used. Weight of reinforcement material is varying at %wt 5, 10 and 15 % Al2O3. Tensile strength, ductility impact strength & hardness these are main mechanical properties which is studying in this paper. Tensile strength & hardness of the aluminium alloy composites increases with the increase in wt % of Al2O3 up to certain limit. More amount of reinforcement was added. due to poor wettability of the reinforced material tensile strength decreas. The Microstructure study of the samples indicated near uniform distribution of the fly ash and Al2O3 particles in the matrix. Aluminium alloy having better mechanical properties are required in castings of a shape. The alloy is used for resistance to corrosion.
