Abstract

A sheet material for sliding surface bearings comprises an expanded metal mesh which consists of a wrought aluminum alloy and is coated with a mixture of polytetrafluoroethylene, filler and glass fibers. The bond strength is increased by coating the surface of the expanded metal mesh with a primer layer.
