The aim of this study was to investigate the influence of aging parameters and initial roughness on the wear properties of the aluminum alloy AA 6082 (Al-Mg-Si). For this purpose, various heat treatments were carried out. Afterwards, the solutionized samples and artificially aged samples (at 185 degrees C for 3 and 6 h) were prepared in terms of two different average surface roughnesses via various grades of grinding. The wear behavior of the samples was investigated by a pin-on-disc wear test apparatus under four different applied loads (5, 10, 15 and 20 N) and five different sliding distances (250, 500, 750, 1000, 1250 and 1500 m). The sliding velocity was 30 cm x s(-1). After the wear tests, the mass loss was measured for all samples and the worn surfaces were examined by scanning electron microscopy (SEM). The wear test results clearly show that with increasing hardness, the mass loss decreases, and the mass loss of the worn surfaces increases with increasing sliding distance, test load and initial roughness.
