Fretting fatigue tests have been conducted on 7075-T7351 aluminum alloy coupons with fretting pads of the same material. Three different stress ratios were used, the otherwise constant amplitude axial loads being interrupted every 1000 cycles by either tensile overloads to 400 MPa or compressive underloads to −200 MPa. Tensile overloads greatly prolonged fatigue life for low stresses where the overload ratios were 1.6 and above; compressive underloads had comparatively little effect. The results are discussed in terms of crack growth retardation phenomena.
