The friction properties of titanium and titanium alloyed in induction furnaces with Al, Cr, Fe, Mn, Pb, and Si were tested, and the microhardness and microstructure were analyzed at various phases. It was found that titanium and the investigated titanium alloys have low friction resistance (they wear 15 to 30 times faster than brass, bronze, or stainless steel). However, paired with brass or bronze they can be used at friction points with comparatively light loads. (R.V.J.)
