摘要

A slide bearing fashioned as a ball bearing or a roller bearing, wherein contact portions of a roll shaft and a bearing, and rolling elements are formed of a combination of a ceramic material and a solid lubricant material. The slide bearing is advantageously utilized in a continuous hot dipping apparatus in which ball bearings or roller bearings are used as bearings of a sink roll and guide rolls of the apparatus.
