Abstract

Uniaxial plain fatigue and fretting fatigue tests were carried out on detonation gun sprayed Cu–Ni–In coating on Al–Mg–Si alloy samples. The samples in three conditions were considered: uncoated, as-coated and ground after coating. Ground coated specimens exhibited superior plain fatigue and fretting fatigue lives compared with uncoated and as-coated specimens. The life enhancement has been discussed in terms of surface finish and residual compressive stresses at the surface.
