Abstract
A slide surface construction is formed of an aggregate of Fe crystals having a body-centered cubic structure. The aggregate includes (3hh0) oriented metal crystals with their (3hh0) planes (by Miller indices) oriented toward a slide surface. The content S of said (3hh0) oriented metal crystals is set in a range represented by S.gtoreq.40%. This makes it possible to provide a slide surface construction which has a predetermined hardness and an excellent wear resistance and ensures that the wearing of a mating member having a lower hardness can be suppressed.
