Coefficient of friction





 

What is the coefficient of block of wood on plastic?

It depends on the plastic. Teflon or UHMWPE would be lower and other plastics higher. You can find coefficients for steel on plastic and plastic on plastic in the catalogs of plastics suppliers. Or just measure it.
