The work presents the results of erosion tests and metallographic studies of samples from blade steel 20Kh13 with diffusion coating obtained by ion nitriding and samples from nitrided steel 20Kh13 with a relief previously formed on the surface. Studies of the samples resistance to high-speed water droplet erosion were carried out using the unique hydraulic impact rig «Erosion-M» of the NRU «MPEI». It was established that the use of nitriding and nitriding with preliminary surface structuring allows increasing the relative erosion resistance in the area with a maximum wear rate of at least 2 times, and in the area with a steady wear rate of at least 3 times. It was also found that structuring the surface layer before the nitriding process allows reducing the wear rate in the area with a maximum erosion rate compared to the nitrided surface by at least 10%.
