Abstract

In a plane bearing comprising a lining having first concavities on the surface thereof, and an overlay formed on the bonding layer, the seizure resistance of the bearing with worn overlay is enhanced by determining the first length of first concavities as seen in a direction perpendicular to a sliding direction non-equal to the second length of said first concavities as seen in the sliding direction.
