Title: EVALUATION OF WEAR MECHANISMS OF AN ALUMINUM ALLOY IN EMERGENCY APPLICATIONS.
Authors: MINCIUNA, M. G.1,2, VIZUREANU, P.1,2 peviz2002@yahoo.com, SANDU, A. V.1,2, ISTRATE, B.3
Source: Archives of Metallurgy & Materials. 2025, Vol. 70 Issue 2, p913-920. 8p.
Subjects: Aluminum alloys, Firefighting equipment, Water jets, Mechanical wear, Mechanical behavior of materials, Friction measurements, Safety appliances, Durability
Abstract: Aluminum-silicon alloys have become a popular choice for applications in the automotive and aerospace industries and have proven themselves through their fault-tolerant processability and respectable static properties at comparatively low costs. Current research has focused on a water jet gun for firefighters. This is an essential device used by firefighters and other emergency response teams to control and direct the flow of water from fire hoses. The role of the research is also to understand the performance of enriched materials in the construction of water guns for firefighters. Through a series of friction and wear tests on aluminumbased alloys, the research establishes correlations between wear performance and the mechanical properties of the materials. These findings provide critical insights into the design and performance of pressure guns, thereby helping to increase the safety and effectiveness of firefighting equipment. The results of the study provide practical recommendations for increasing the durability and functionality of essential firefighting tools. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
