Formula to assess wear due to friction in sheaves/pulleys

[QUOTE="Antonius Robertus, post: 5449845, member: 591531"] Hi Nidum, thanks for your answer ! I search on tribology and found some interesting stuff. But as you said, it depends a lot on material combinations and tests results. Anyway, thanks for your help. Now here's another question, not directly linked to friction wear on pulleys. Does the traction force on a winch rope depend on how many times the rope is spooled on the winch drum ? In other terms, is it necessary to have a minimum length (or minimum contact area) of rope spooled on the drum to avoid sliding ? If so, I would like to know how to determine this required length of spooled rope to get a given traction force. Thanks [/QUOTE]
