The current study gives an insight of the roll-slip phenomenon of polymer-metal pair where priority is given to measurement techniques, test duration and the behavior of the polymer. A systematic tribological measurement was used to identify the friction torque from polymer –metal pairs where the friction torque from contact is obtained by subtracting the base torque of the test rig to exploit the absolute results. Base torque of the machine is almost constant, the changing can describe with linear trend line which is less than 0,5% per ten minutes. Measurements made for 3 hours shows that the friction force between the polyamide 6 (NaPA6) and structural steel (S33J2) has a polynomial of degree two with a function ( Ff = −1.5549 ⋅T 2 + 9.4031⋅T +13,126 ). Micrographs from the contact surface revealed the damage of roughness peaks during the course of testing. The involved wear mechanisms was investigated with roughness measurements and microscopy. The roughness plots also correlates with the micrograph where the rate of decrease in Ra in the initial stage is higher followed by a linear increase in the later stage. This can describe using polynomial function of degree as ( Ra = 0.029 ⋅T 2 + 0.3695⋅T + 2.4967 ).
