Abstract

A sliding member (1) includes an iron and steel-based sintered compact containing chromium, molybdenum, and carbon and having a content of chromium, of 5 mass % or less. The sliding member (1) includes: a compound layer (11) which has a sliding surface (1a) and is formed mainly of an iron and steel nitride; and a diffusion layer (12) which is adjacent to the compound layer (11) and has an iron and steel structure into which nitrogen and carbon diffuse. The concentrations of carbon and nitrogen in the diffusion layer (12) are gradually reduced with increasing depth from the sliding surface (1a).
