Abstract
A method of manufacture of a dry bearing material for high speed, high load purposes is disclosed. A resin paste obtained by kneeding together a polytetrafluoroethylene (PTFE) resin and a solid lubricant is coated on a porous metallic sintered layer formed on a steel plate such that it fills the interstices of the sintered layer and covers the surface thereof. The solid lubricant is in a thinly rolled state obtained from pulverized solid lubricant, and it is distributed a leaflike or scalelike form and in a striation consisting of multiple layers spaced apart one above another.
