Abstract Tribological tests of a hybrid composite (Al–12Si)–40Sn prepared by sintering mixtures of powders of silumin and pure tin were carried out using the pin-on-disk scheme. It has been established that an increase in the sliding velocity decreases the wear intensity of the composite upon dry friction, while an increase of the load leads to the opposite result. The data obtained indicate that the
