Abstract
A layer of Teflon fluorocarbon resin material forming a slide bearing surface is isolated from a high temperature load by a body of heat insulating load bearing material captured between a pair of carbon steel channel or box-like members. These members are also joined by a pair of side support elements which have holes therethrough for air circulation. A layer of brass is welded to the lower channel member, and the fluorocarbon layer is attached to the brass plate by a plurality of spike-like projections formed from the plate. These projections provide heat conducting paths that engage a stainless steel plate forming the other component of the slide bearing.
