The frictional forces between pile yarns and the frictional slider were measured in order to study the frictional mechanism of pile fabrics. The results are as follows. (1) The frictional force F is expressed experimentally by F=fAY•A+b•W where A is the real contact area between the surface of pile yarns and the surface of the frictional slider, W is the loss energy, and fAY and b are constants. (2) The relation between the frictional force F and the pressure R is expressed experimentally by F=K1•Rm+K2•Rn where K1, K2, m and n are constants.
