A hybrid of iron chips and kaolinite clay fillers reinforced aluminium metal matrix composite material was developed. The composites samples were produced using stir casting method. Results of the characterization tests showed that both the iron chips and kaolinite clay particulate fillers increased the tensile and flexural strength while only kaolinite clay is effective in increasing the impact energy. The optimum formulation of the properties was determined at 13.97%, 18.15% and 67.88% of kaolinite clay, iron chips particles and aluminium metal matrix respectively. Overall, the maximum tensile strength and flexural strength were improved by 54% and 78% respectively as compared to the control sample.
