2.1 Material Specifications

The material used for the pins was cast iron and that for the plate was complemented by Mild Steel. The pins and plates were fabricated from the raw material using the lathe machine, hand cutter, and surface grinder. Mild steel is strong and readily available and has relatively low carbon content. It has a high melting point of 1410 °C, encompassing its high utility. Cast iron has a carbon content of greater than 2% and the usefulness is derived from its low melting point around 1150 °C. It is known for its resistance to deformation and wear resistance; oxidation enables to resist the destruction and weakening. The elemental composition of the cast iron pins and mild steel plates was evaluated using chemical spectroscopy and presented in Table 1.Table 1Elemental composition of cast iron pins and mild steel plate
