Abstract: A wear resistant bearing system includes an inner member that has an internal core and a bearing surface which has a 50 Rockwell C scale hardness or greater. The inner member has a chemical composition that is uniform throughout the internal core and the bearings surface. The wear resistant bearing system includes an outer member that partially surrounds the inner member and includes a receiving surface that has liner system adhered thereto. The liner system includes a wear resistant matrix that has one or more reinforcing fiber systems and has one or more lubricative fibers system dispersed in the wear resistant matrix. The liner system has a wear surface that has portions of both the reinforcing fiber system and the lubricative fiber system. The wear surface is continuous.
