  • The mixed atomized iron powders with 0.3% graphite and 1% Ni powders were cold pressed and sintered at $1200^{\circ}C$ for 30 min under pure Ar gas atmosphere. Some of the sintered specimens were intercritically annealed at $760^{\circ}C$ and quenched in water (single quenching). The other sintered specimens were first fully austenized at $890^{\circ}C$ and water quenched. These specimens were then intercritically annealed at $760^{\circ}C$ and re-quenched in water. The experimental results showed that the wear coefficient effectively decreased in the double quenched specimen.
