Wear, corrosion and fatigue are among the most important mechanisms that lead to surface damage, which, ultimately, leads failure of components. There is an increasing demand for reducing failures related costs due wear shortcomings heavily loaded engineering Thus, application technologies gives a great potential saving resources providing improved technology.
 The presented research work involves characterization duplex treated i.e. plasma nitrided (at two different temperatures 520 °C, 550 °C) PVD coated – X42Cr13/W plastic mould tool steel with special emphasis on ball-on-disc behaviour tested specimens. objective study evaluate effect nitriding treatments prior coating specimens having preparations. Also, it has been established treatment (plasma + physical vapour deposition [PVD] coating) better properties as compared individual treatments.
