In present work, the wear behaviour of extruded AZ31B magnesium alloy during dry sliding conditions has been investigated. The experiments were carried out using a pin-on-disc type wear apparatus against a steel disc counter face in an applied load range of 10-50 N, sliding velocity range of 0.1-0.9 m/sand at a constant sliding distance of 1000 m. The effect of applied load and sliding velocity on wear rate were analyzed. The wear surfaces were examined using a scanning electron microscope equipped with an energy dispersive spectrometer to reveal wear features. Wear mechanisms were analyzed at different sliding conditions. They were abrasion, oxidation, delamination, plastic deformation and melting.
