This work focuses the running inconvenient weight and the weight to strength ratio of the components of the vehicle as the weight directly affects on the mileage and running cost so this is the to replace the current material by low weight material without harming the safety. In this work the axle shaft is designed and manufactured by alternate material i.e. glass fiber and epoxy resin, the objective is to replace the all components of vehicle but the representative basis is the axle of the two wheeler.
The glass fiber and epoxy resin having additional properties as they are composite materials. The composite materials i.e. composition of the more materials having properties of the all materials. The composite axle of is compared with conventional steel axle under different mechanical testing destructive and non-destructive tests with evaluating of different mechanical properties such as tensile strength, crack free structure by using appropriate experimental techniques.
