The final compositions selected for the proposed work are presented in Table 2. The wear test is
done on the PIN-ON-DISC machine at constant disc speed 250 rpm and for a time period of 600
seconds for three specimens. Each specimen is tested for three loads. Then the corresponding
losses in the weights due to wear of the three specimens are found.

Figure 1 show that with increasing the load specific wear rate is decreased for the percentage of
Cu 0.7, 0.8 and 0.9. The wear rate is more in percentage of Cu0.7 and less in percentage of
Cu1.1.
