In this study, air-blast shot peening was applied to analyze the wear characteristics of CP titanium (Grade II). The specimens were exposed to different plastic-deformation rates via different severe shot-peening conditions in order to determine the wear behaviour of CP titanium. A free-ball micro-abrasion test was performed on the specimens shot peened with different Almen intensities. Nanohardness measurements were also performed to investigate the work-hardened layer -the coarse-grainedstructure transition zone. Light microscopy and scanning electron microscopy (SEM) were used to analyze both the wear tracks and the severely deformed layer. As a result, the plastically deformed layer thickness reaches approximately 100 μm beneath the surface. Moreover, the hardness and wear durability after severe shot peening is increased. Keywords: air-blast shot peening, wear, nanoindentation, plastic deformation, ultra-fine-grain durability V tej {tudiji je bilo uporabljeno peskanje z zrakom za {tudij lastnosti pri obrabi CP-titana (Grade II). Vzorci so bili izpostavljeni razli~nim stopnjam deformacije v razli~nih razmerah peskanja, da bi ugotovili vedenje CP-titana pri obrabi. Izvr{en je bil abrazijski preizkus z mikrokroglicami na vzorcih po peskanju z razli~no Almen-intenziteto. Izvr{ene so bile meritve nanotrdote za preiskavo utrjenega sloja in grobozrnate strukture prehodne cone. Za analizo sledov obrabe in mo~no deformiranih slojev sta bili uporabljeni svetlobna in vrsti~na elektronska mikroskopija (SEM). Debelina plasti~no deformiranega sloja dose`e globino okrog 100 μm pod povr{ino. Trdota in odpornost proti obrabi se po mo~nem peskanju pove~ata. Klju~ne besede: hladno kovanje povr{ine s peskanjem z zrakom, obraba, nanoodtisek, plasti~na deformacija, odpornost ultra drobnih zrn
