In this paper, fundamental potential pump wear problems will be illustrated pictorially and the mechanisms of these processes will be discussed. Some of the wear processes to be discussed include: abrasion, adhesion, cavitation, rolling contact fatigue, corrosion, and lubrication failure. It is expected that this discussion will provide a basic background to facilitate understanding of the more complex wear processes to be discussed during this conference.
