In the present scenario, metals have very wide applications where generation of friction is the major problem. Due to the continuous friction, wear rate increases which leads to deformation of the metals. The pin-on-disc apparatus is used to find the wear rate between the two different metals. In this experiment Aluminium and Mild steel were used. The wear rate and co-efficient of friction were calculated in two metallic configurations. One of the configurations is High Speed Steel (tool) v/s Mild steel (work piece) and the another one is High Speed steel (tool) v/s Aluminium (work piece). In this experiment for both configurations the wear rate and coefficient of friction were recorded at the point loads of 20N,30N,40N. Based on the readings it was concluded that mild steel has less wear rate compared to aluminium at all loading conditions.
