AB  - Unexpectedly high, uniform rates of wear occur from time to time in concentrated, lubricated, rolling contacts having low slide-roll ratios. Such wear can occur under quite mild conditions and this poses a significant practical problem, especially in gears. This phenomenon of high wear rate at low slide-roll ratio has been reproduced consistently and studied in the laboratory using a disc machine. The outcome of this study is reported. It is shown that the wear is caused by plastic deformation, fatigue cracking, ductile extrusion and fracture on a scale associated with asperity contact.
