the present paper, it has been proposed to find out the wear resistance of D-Gun coated MS. The specimensare coated with WC-10Co-4Cr on the steel substrates. The coating was characterized by the SEM/EDS analysis.Subsequently the wear behaviour of the uncoated, WC-10Co-4Cr coated MS was investigated according to ASTMStandard G99-03 on a Pin-on-Disc Wear Test Rig. Cumulative wear rate, cumulative wear volume loss were calculatedfor the coated, as well as, the uncoated specimens for 30N, 50N and 70N normal loads. SEM/EDS analysis of the wornsurfaces was carried out at IIT, Ropar.The as-sprayed coatings exhibited typical splat morphology. It has been concluded that the thermal sprayed WC-10Co4Cr coating can be very useful to minimize the wear problem of substrate steel plates. The coatings were found to beadherent to the substrate steel after the wear tests.
