An aluminum base bearing alloy having outstanding seizure resistance, fatigue resistance and wear resistance is provided. The alloy comprises, in addition to aluminum, 1-11 wt. % of at least one of Mn, Fe, Mo, Ni, Zr, Co, Ti, Sb, Nb and Cr and 1.5-35 wt. % Sn and contains at least 5 particles of intermetallic compounds having a diameter of at least 5 mu m per 3.56x10-2(mm)2 of cross-sectional area of the alloy. The bearing alloy may optionally contain at least one additional element selected from Pb, In, Tl, Cd, Bi, Cu and Mg. A bearing material is provided by pressure welding the aluminum base bearing alloy to a backing steel sheet.
