The uniaxial type and plane bending type fatigue tests of Zn alloys were performed. Eleven alloys were tested. They included existing alloys such as ZAS (Zn-4 Al-3 Cu), ZA alloys such as ZA 27 (Zn-27 Al-2 Cu), and alloys devloped newly such as Z 1010 (Zn-10 Al-10 Cu). The results were follows. (1) The fatigue strength of 10
4 cycles improves with the tensile strength of alloys increases. The fatigue strength of Z 1010 in the uniaxial test is 222 MPa, which is 30 % higher than that of ZAS (169 MPa). (2) The fatigue strength of 10
6∼10
7 cycles does not depend on the tensile strength of alloys. The fatigue strength of the uniaxial test and the bending test are 130 MPa and 100 MPa respectively, which are settled values. (3) The ratio of the fatigue strength to the tensile strength decreases with the strength of alloys increases.
