Copper cylinder-on-silver plated copper cylinder wear tests in oscillating motion were carried out in oil. Time-dependent mild to severe wear transition was observed for a certain large load. The surface analyses and wear simulations were conducted and they revealed that the wear transition was attributable not to the wear-out of the silver plating, but to the increase of the contact pressure with increase of the number of oscillations, which was caused by the increase of sliding pair shape inconformity due to wear.
