Popis: Effects of preoxidation on high temperature wear of piercing plug tool steel sliding against SA210C steel used for production of seamless tube have been studied using a pin-on-disc CETR tribometer, under applied normal load of 20 N at 900 oC in air. It was found in the preoxidized pin specimens of piercing plug tool steel that the coefficient of friction decreased to about 0.4 at an initial stage followed by showing nearly constant value of about 0.4 during high temperature wear testing. On the other hand, it was also found in the pin specimens without preoxidation that the coefficient of friction increased and fluctuated, ranging from about 0.3 to 0.6 during the tests until the running period of about 800 sec. The compact and continuous Fe-oxide layer was formed on the contact surface of the preoxidized pin specimens after high temperature wear testing followed by penetrating along the grain boundaries of coarse ferrite in the decarburized region beneath the oxide layer due to the lower hardness of the region.
