The change of wear resistance of a copper friction pair with pulse magnetron Cu-Mo-S tribological coatings was studied by tribological tests in argon and air environment. Microstructure of the coatings was investigated by transmission and scanning electron microscopy. Fiber-globular structure of the coatings was evaluated. Cu-Mo-S coatings can increase the wear resistance of a copper friction pair in ~ 71.7 and ~ 7.9 times in argon and air atmosphere, respectively. Friction coefficient near 0.27 has been observed during tribological tests in air environment
