Abstract: In this paper, wear are common problems encountered in the piston. Thermal spray coatings re one of numerous methods for alteration of part’s surface properties. The innovation relies upon the standard of dissolving and speeding of fine particles and their quick cementing delayed consequence on the substrate. Among every one of the strategies of thermal spray coatings, High-Velocity Oxy-Fuel and Plasma spray procedure is broadly utilized in different applications. In this research, chemical powder with explicit properties against wear was chosen, and it was showered with high velocity oxygen fuel (HVOF) and plasma spray strategies onto Aluminium 2014 alloy substrates. Both the coatings have same binder with equivalent rate. The coatings were portrayals were done with the help of Scanning Electron Microscope, X-ray Diffractometer, and Pin-on-disc wear testing machine. A pin on disc machine was used to analyse the wear behaviour by applying 10N and 20N loads.
