Abstract. One of the technologies for modifying the mechanical properties<br />

of materials is the rough chroming. Because of the advantages obtained with this<br />

procedure, rough chroming of steel XC45 was used also for obtaining good<br />

tribological properties.<br />

We have used a pawn-disc tribometer in order to obtain data regar<strong>din</strong>g the<br />

behavior at dry friction. The experimental results and the conclusions are<br />

presented in this paper.<br />

Key words: Tribometer pawn-disc, wear ratio, friction surface<br />

1. Introduction<br />

A great number of modern technologies for modifying the mechanical<br />

properties is used in the industry, to obtain advantages from the mechanical and<br />

tribological properties point of view.<br />

In paper (Popescu et al., 2011) are widely presented the advantages of<br />

rough chroming procedure.<br />

Since paper (Popescu et al., 2011) refers to the testing of steel XC45 at a<br />

temperature of 400°C on a pawn-disc tribometer, this paper presents the testing<br />

of the same material in the same conditions, so we will present only the results.<br />
