About this document

Wear Rate vs. Hardness Chart by vijayshankar776612 is a document available to read on EtoBox.

This document shows a graph plotting the dimensionless wear constant K against material hardness H for various material groups. The wear constant K is equal to the wear-rate constant ka multiplied by the hardness H. The graph demonstrates that for metals, polymers and ceramics, a higher material hardness generally corresponds to a lower wear constant and therefore a lower wear rate. Tool steels and technical ceramics like tungsten carbide have the highest hardness and lowest wear rates.
