<p><P>PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a sliding device having satisfactory seizure resistance and low manufacturing cost when compared with a conventional sliding device. <P>SOLUTION: This sliding device 1 is composed of a swash plate 3 provided with a first sliding face 3A and a semi-spherical shoe 4 sliding with the swash plate 3. The swash plate 3 is made of a base material 3B of high strength brass containing Mn and Si, and minute particle-like Mn-Si compound 6 is exposed in the inside and on the first sliding face 3A (a surface of the base material 3B) of the base material 3B. In the swash plate 3, amount of exposed Mn-Si compound 6 exposed on the first sliding face 3A being the surface is increased by applying etching on the base material 3B after cutting it. <P>COPYRIGHT: (C)2006,JPO&NCIPI</p> |
