Conclusions
• Effect of hardness on wear resistance varied
Crushing abrasion (uniaxial crushing)
Three-body abrasion (crushing pin-on-disc)
Impact-abrasion (impeller-tumbler)
• Wear surfaces
• More plastic deformation in steels with lower hardness
• Larger surface formations
• Scratches more visible in harder steels
• Less plastic deformation
• Transition in wear mechanism
• Cutting
