Evaluation of some of the main parameters on the wear behavior of Hadfield steel

this paper, the wear behavior of Hadfield steel has been investigated by using the grinding wheel in the pin on disk test method. The main parameters of this test method such as normal load on pin, sliding speed and sliding distance have been studied. In this test, the main and interaction effects of parameters on the weight loss and its regression models have been obtained. The results show that chipping and surface cracking are two basic mechanisms of wear of the steel. In addition, the normal load is more effective than sliding speed in weight loss of the steel. In addition, the role of normal load on the weight loss increases with increasing the sliding distance, while the role of disk velocity fixes. The normal pressure (load) must also be lower than 0.5 MPa for low stress wear condition.
