Abstract

Wear due to friction is a complicated matter and cost the international economy millions of dollars. Also, it affects the accuracy of the sliding parts, due to material loss. This study tries to find out the involving factors. The present work is an attempt to find a relation between the materials and friction coefficient and wear mechanism of ‘60/40’ Brass alloy under dry sliding condition, the normal load is (8, 15 and 22) newtons. Experimental was achieved using a pin on disc (P.O.D) tribometer, and sliding velocities (0.5, 1.3 and 1.8) m/s for sliding time (0-60 sec).and each case study, under dry condition. The lost metal and the friction coefficient were measured at the same moment. This was done for three different materials. These three materials are steel 300, 500 and 600 Mpa. Results proved that material types highly affect wear and friction.
