Sliding material

摘要

A method of producing a sliding material having an alloy layer and a support layer involves forming a Pb alloy or Sn alloy sheet and roll-bonding the alloy sheet to the support material. The sliding material may then be heat-treated. With this method sliding materials of large width can be produced without the need for cutting. The mechanical properties can be changed by heat treatment at different temperatures depending on the intended use of the material.
