The work is devoted to establishing the effect of laser modification by SiC particles of the surface layers of 7075 aluminum alloy, on its wear resistance in friction conditions with a rigidly fixed and non-fixed abrasive. It has been revealed that with increasing linear energy of the laser beam, the thickness of the modified layer increases and the volume content of SiC particles in it increases. X-ray spectral and X-ray phase analysis of the layers modified with SiC particles confirmed the pre
