ASTM Committee G02, and Slatter, T (2024) ASTM G115-24 - Standard Guide for Measuring and Reporting Friction Coefficients, This guide covers information to assist in the selection of a method for measuring the frictional properties of materi- als. Requirements for minimum data and a format for present- ing these data are suggested. The use of the suggested reporting form will increase the long-term usefulness of the test results within a given laboratory and will facilitate the exchange of test results between laboratories. It is hoped that the use of a uniform reporting format will provide the basis for the prepa- ration of handbooks and computerized databases. DOI: 10.1520/G0115-24.

ASTM Committee G02, and Slatter, T (2023) ASTM G99-23 - Standard Test Method for Wear and Friction Testing with a Pin-on-Disk or Ball-on-Disk Apparatus, This test method covers a laboratory procedure for determining the wear of materials and friction during sliding using a pin-on-disk apparatus. Materials are tested in pairs under nominally non-abrasive conditions. The principal areas of experimental attention in using this type of apparatus to measure wear are described. DOI: 10.1520/G0099-23.

ASTM Committee G02, Blau, P, Slatter, T (2022) ASTM G133-05 - Standard Test Method for Linearly Reciprocating Ball-on-Flat Sliding Wear, This test method is designed to simulate the geometry and motions that are experienced in many types of rubbing components whose normal operation results in periodic reversals in the direction of relative sliding. The wear resulting from this mode of movement may differ from that experienced by the same materials sliding continuously in only one direction (unidirectional sliding) even for comparable durations of contact. Test loads and speeds are to be determined by the severity of the proposed application or purpose of the testing. Either of two sets of testing conditions (designated Procedures A and B) may be used.
