The study presented in this paper concerns the influence of the counter materials on wear and friction performance of polytetrafluoroethylene (PTFE) reservoirs arranged in distinct patterns on coated surfaces. Al-bronze and Mo coatings were deposited on a mild steel substrate using an atmospheric plasma spray process. Three patterns of PTFE reservoirs were used. Pins, which served as counter surface, were made of three different materials. Wear tests were carried out in a pin-on-disc test rig at room temperature and under dry contact conditions. The tests were carried out at a constant pressure of 10 MPa. An average linear speed of the test disc was 0.036 m/s. The importance of appropriately matched hardness of two surfaces in sliding contact is emphasised. Due to inadequate hardness of the counter material, performance of Mo coating was adversely affected and expected beneficial action of PTFE reservoirs severely hindered. Al-bronze coating proved to be performing far better than Mo coating. Serious deterioration of Mo coating occurred faster than that for Al-bronze coating.
