SLIDING BEARING WITH BEARING SUBSTRATE AND POLYMER IN-FILL

摘要

A half bearing (100) for a sliding bearing, the half bearing comprising a bearing substrate (102) having relief regions (114, 116) provided in a surface of the bearing substrate adjacent respective end faces (110) of the bearing substrate (102), and a polymer in-fill of non-uniform thickness provided in a filled relief region (114, 116), wherein the thickness of the polymer in-fill in the filled relief region (114, 116) is greater proximate the respective end face (110) than remote from the respective end face (110).
