Abstract

A method is disclosed for making a wear component that includes providing a base surface, producing a synthetic diamond film having at least a particular equivalent strain, and applying the diamond film to the base surface. A method is also disclosed for producing synthetic diamond for use as a wear surface, by chemical vapor deposition wherein the equivalent strain of the synthetic diamond is monitored, and deposition parameters are modified when the equivalent strain of the synthetic diamond is less than a predetermined percentage.
