Abstract
This paper examines methods of assessing the wear resistance of coated and uncoated materials. Test equipment for sliding wear, erosion, imp act and dynamic wear tests is discussed. Processes for measuring wear rates are highlighted and a simple procedure for conducting wear tests to simulate industrial wear problems is given. The wear test selected and the wear conditions encountered in real applications should confo rm in order for specialists to make adequate judgement on the life of a particular component in service.
