In the present study an effort has been made to study the wear behaviour of alunimium 7075 which is reinforced with Titanium carbide (TiC), Graphite (Gr) and Egg Shell particulates (ESP). Castings are produced by using stir casting process. Weight percentage of graphite is varied from 1 wt. % to 3 wt. % in step of one while keeping constant 2 wt. % of Titanium Carbide and constant 1 wt. % of Graphite. Wear tests are carried out to study the wear behaviour of the prepared samples by using pin on disc apparatus. Wear tests are conducted in two sets, one by keeping constant speed of 300 rpm and by varying load from 10 N to 30 N in step of 10 N. Another set of wear test is carried out by keeping constant load of 40 N and by varying speed from 300 rpm to 500 rpm in step of 100 rpm. Morphology analysis of worn-out surfaces is carried out at different wear parameters by using inverted optical microscope to study the surface morphology of worn-out surfaces. From the study it was observed that weight percentage of ESP has a great influence on the wear behaviour of Al7075 MMC.
