The influence of surface hardness on the fretting wear of steel pairs: its role in debris retention in the contact

The influence of specimen hardness (between 275 kgf mm−2 and 835 kgf mm−2) in an AISI Type O1 steel-on-steel fretting contact was examined. In equal-hardness pairs, a variation in the wear volume of around 20% across the range of hardnesses examined was observed. However, in pairs where the two spec...
