Disclosed is a sliding contact surface-forming material (12) having minimal swelling and excellent friction-proof and wear-proof characteristics when used in moist environments such as in water, and improved in the friction-proof and wear-proof characteristics under dry friction conditions such as in the open air, particularly under oscillation conditions for testing journal, the sliding contact surface-forming material comprising a reinforcing base impregnated with a resol-type phenolic resin having polytetrafluoroethylene resin dispersed therein, the reinforcing base being composed of a woven fabric formed by using, respectively as the warp and the weft, a ply yarn which is formed by paralleling at least two strands of a single twist yarn spun from fluorine-containing resin fiber and a single twist yarn spun from polyester fiber, and by twisting them in the direction opposite to the direction in which the single twist yarns were spun; and further disclosed is a multi-layered sliding contact component having the overall shape of a flat plate or a circular cylinder, and having the above-described sliding contact surface-forming material so as to configure at least the sliding-contact surface thereof. |
