Abstract Cemented tungsten carbide–cobalt (WC–Co) alloy has good mechanical properties, so it is widely used for cutting tools, wear-resistant dies and rolls, and shock-resistant punching dies. In this study, a wear test between cemented WC–Co alloy and carbon steel is carried out using a pin-on-disc wear-testing machine. The characteristics as to wear rate, coefficient of friction and surface roughness are investigated. Pin specimen and disc specimen surfaces are analyzed by a fluorescent X-ray analyzer. In addition, the wear characteristics of WC–Co alloy are confirmed by SEM observation of the microstructure of the cemented WC–Co alloy specimen.
