Wear which occurs in the sliding of metal pair is very complicated. Because it is made up the various factors which are combined in a complicated way. So, it is very hard to formulate simple equation. In this paper, the characteristics of wear distance and wear load have been studied by using cylindrical specimen of brass and mild steel with the Suzuki type wear testing machine.
Wear test carried out for brass in the lubricant condition and for mild steel at the dry condition.
The results obtained were as follows:
1) In the relation between friction load and weight of wear, mild steel which tested in the dry friction reached the maximum value of wear around 20kg load on 500 rpm and 24kg load on 1000 rpm. On the other hand, for brass which carried out lubricant condition, weight of wear and wear load is proportioned.
2) In the relation between wear distance and weight of wear carried out lubricant condition, between weight of wear and wear load is proportioned. In the relation between wear distance and weight of wear, initial wear phenomenon appeared at mild steel and brass showed steady wear around 8 km wear distance.
3) At the Holm's law of wear (V=Z ), the value range of factor Z is (1.135∼4.185) ×10 and average value 2.95×10 on 500 rpm. On the other hand value range of factor Z is (2.700∼7.750)×10 and averge value 5.715×10 on 1,000 rpm.
