Research is a continues process which always finds better solutions to many complex problems, man always eager to find new things and it is natural. The research on material is also a continues process which leads to find new type material which is necessary for some specific applications. Today aerospace industries and automobile industries need high strength materials with low weight and higher resist to fatigue, wear, and high temperature. This can be fulfilled by composite technology; composites are the material with blend of two or three materials with varying magnitude. There are many methods to manufacture composite but getting uniform distribution reinforcement particle is a big challenge which can accomplished by stir casting technology. For this work we have selected aluminium (Al2618) as a matrix material, Boron Carbide (B4C) and Graphite (Gr) as reinforcement material. Three types of composite are manufactured 1. Al2618, 2. AL2618+7B4C, 3. Al2618+7B4C+3Gr. For all three type of composites hardness test and OM analysis were carried before and after wear, the hardness of composite increases with increase in the percentage of reinforcement and in reversely density decreases. The wear test carried on pin on disk machine for all 3 composites by considering load, sliding speed, sliding distance as a parameter. The analysis was done using a Taguchi technique (L9) and ANOVA by using Minitab software and the percentage of contribution on wear rate by each parameter is calculated. From the analysis it was conclude that as the load and sliding distance increases the wear rate also increases and wear rate decreases with increase in speed
