In this project we have found that the mechanical properties of tensile strength and hardness are increases on the basis of effect of fiber and effect of hardener in a liquid silicone rubber matrix. The percentage of hardener increases with increasing the hardness of the silicone rubber composite. The composite consists of 15% hardener has given higher hardness compared to 10% and 5% of hardener. The condition at 80% of silicone rubber, 5% of hardener, 15% of fiber showed higher hardness compare to the other conditions. The thickness of composites increases then the strength of the composites also increased.
