Conclusions

  1. 1.

    Among the materials investigated the pitting formation process takes place most intensely in the M2 plasma coating. The resistance of the PG-SR4 coating to contact-fatigue failure is at the level of a similar characteristic of U8 steel with bainite structure after isothermal processing.

  2. 2.

    The controllable thermoplastic hardening of the U8 steel with subsequent treatment to bainite results in an increase in its fracture toughness, increases the resistance to contact-fatigue failure in comparison with normal isothermal processing.

  3. 3.

    For increasing the resistance to contact-fatigue of protective coatings, it is necessary to reduce their porosity, increase their cohesion strength and the strength of bonds with the base metal.
