The wear behavior of alumina short fiber reinforced tin-bronze matrix composites was studied at the room temperature and an elevated temperature. The effect of the composition of specimens and the variation of wear conditions on the wear properties was examined by a pin-on-disc type wear testing machine. The wear mechanism according to the compositon of specimens at various wear conditions was discussed by the observation of the microstructure and the analysis of the composition on the worn surfaces. A thicker oxide layer on worn surfaces led to a lower wear loss because of the lubricating effect of oxide layers between pin and disc. As the testing temperature was raised to 350$^{circ}$C, the fiber reinforced composites exibited markedly increased wear resistance even at a higher applied load since the reinforcement of composites with alumina fibers was not affected to a large extent by raising temperature. The results obtained by AES and EDS analysis indicated that the oxide layer of the worn surfaces formed at 350$^{circ}$C was proved as Fe-oxide. This was explained by the faster formation of Fe-oxide than Cu-oxide at 350$^{circ}$C.
