PURPOSE:To obtain a sliding member having a low coefft. of friction and a small wear loss by coating the sliding surface of a metal member with a mixture of a specified solid lubricant with an adhesive. CONSTITUTION:At least the sliding surface of a metal member which is slid along a ceramic member is coated with a mixture of a solid lubricant with a binder by thermal spraying or other method to produce a sliding member. The mixture is LiF+MoO3, PbO+Cu, MoS2+Cu, LiF+Ni-CrMo-Si or LiF+Co- Mo-Cr-Si. The ceramic member is desirably made of silicon nitride, sialon, mullite, partially stabilized zirconia or silicon carbide. The sliding member is preferably an engine member. By this structure, superior friction and wear resistances can be obtd. even in a hot dry atmosphere in an engine, etc. |
