Conclusions

  1. 1.

    Bushings of graphitized steel have the best wear resistance when the microstructure consists of divorced pearlite and compact graphite inclusions.

  2. 2.

    From the microstructural changes in the working surface it was possible to determine the wearing qualities of bushings with the same hardness but a different structure of the matrix—lamellar pearlite and ferrite or spheroidized pearlite.
