Abstract The effect of different scheduled artificial ageing hardness on the tensile and impact properties of Al-6Si-0.5Mg-2Ni alloy was studied. The solution treated Al-6Si-0.5Mg-2Ni alloy was aged isochronally for 1 hour at temperatures up to 300oC. The precipitation stages during ageing were monitored by hardness measurements. Tensile and impact properties were determined by standard tests. During artificial ageing, the yield and ultimate tensile strength were found to increase with ageing hardness; the maximum being attained at peak hardness. Ductility and impact toughness of the alloy, on the other hand decreased with ageing hardness, reaching the minimum at the highest hardness. The strength of Al- 6Si-0.5Mg-2Ni alloy was best at highest hardness but exhibits poor ductility and impact strength.
