Abstract(in English) Base metals have been preferred to as the materials to constitute static contacts for use in medium power range. Effects of fretting on the contact resistance of these materials have been well investigated, but few studies on fretting of these components have been reported on account of experimental difficulties. In the present experiment the auther succeeded in generating a micro fretting of small amplitude by means of a vibration which contains a component normal to the insertion line. In this paper the fretting behaviors of static contact components which were composed of some base metal platings were studied by this method with the following results: (1)Degraded conditions which present a high contact resistance rarely happen on the tin-plated contacts with a small amplitude of fretting; (2)The degradation of the nickel-plated contacts is frequently encountered under a light fretting; and (3)Contact performance of degraded nickel-plated contact for example, electrical breakdown characteristics of oxide film is obtained satisfactorily by using the specimen the author produced in this experiment.
