Abstract: This paper reviews some of the general study on the design, analysis and fabrication of composite mono leaf spring. Leaf spring plays a major role in the suspension system of the vehicle. This literature has demonstrated the currently growing demand and interest on replacing the conventional steel spring with composite leaf spring. The behaviour of vehicle and its characteristics such as stability, riding quality and others depends upon the suspension system. Due to varying stress cycles the suspension system may lead to fatigue failure. To overcome this and to improve its performance, lot of materials were used to design the leaf spring with better performance. Among those it is found that fibreglass material provides better strength and also has advantage of light weight than any other steel leaf spring. In this paper, the author reviewed some papers that focus on finding alternate materials of leaf spring and its performance.

Keywords: steel leaf spring, composite mono leaf spring, fiber glass, E-glass epoxy.
