Effect of loading on the roughness set in run-in metal - rubber surfaces

A study has been made on the effect of loading on the roughness set of a metal surface run-in with rubber containing an SKN-18 + SKN-26 nitrile rubber blend in conditions of friction without lubrication. The experimental results are compared with those calculated.State Scientific-Research Institute of Mechanical Engineering, Moscow. Scientific-Research Institute of the Rubber Industry, Moscow.
