Abstract: In knitting parts of a knitting machine(a guide, needle tongue and the like of a warp knitting machine), an anti-corrosion layer 12 formed by wet plating, an intermediate layer 14 formed by dry plating and a hard carbon film 16 formed by dry plating are successively laminated on and applied to, at least, a surface of that portion of a carbon steel base material 10 shaped to profile the knitting parts, which portion contacts with knitting yarn, and the anti-corrosion layer 12 formed by wet plating is applied to a surface other than the portion.
