This article depicts the mechanical and physical characterization of short glass fiber and short carbon fibers reinforced polyamide66 and polypropylene blend. Test were done on four different composites with 0wt%, 10wt% SGF, 10wt% SCF and Hybrid (10wt% SGF+10wt%SCF).Physical and mechanical properties were evaluated. It is found that fiber reinforcement improves both physical and mechanical properties. The density and void concentration greatly influenced by the content of the fibers. Water absorption decreased on reinforcement with glass fibres. Tensile flexural hardness, impact properties are improved on reinforced with fibers.
