Abstract: A sliding member includes a metallic substrate, a porous layer formed on a surface of the metallic substrate, and a sliding layer that covers the porous layer. The porous layer is made of a metal itself or an alloy composition. The sliding layer is made of a lead-free resin composition. The resin composition contains an essential additive, optionally an optional additive, and a fluororesin. The essential additive is any one of a combination of a zinc compound and a carbon fiber, a combination of a zinc compound and an iron oxide, and a combination of a zinc compound, a carbon fiber and an iron oxide. A total content of the essential additive and the optional additive is 10 vol % or more and 35 vol % or less in the resin composition.

The porous layer is made of a metal itself or an alloy composition. The sliding layer is made of a lead-free resin composition. The resin composition consists of a pitch-based carbon fiber and a fluororesin, and assuming weight of the resin composition as 100, more than 10 weight % and 35 weight % or less of the pitch-based carbon fiber is contained.

Abstract: Provided is a sliding member and a bearing using the sliding member. The sliding member contains a metallic substrate, a porous layer formed on a surface of the metallic substrate, and a sliding layer covered on the porous layer. The sliding layer is made of a lead-free resin composition. The lead-free resin composition includes a pitch-based carbon fiber, a fluorocarbon resin, and any of or a combination of two or more of aramid fiber, iron oxide, molybdenum disulfide, graphite, and zinc, zinc alloy, or zinc compound. 0.5 weight % or more and 17 weight % or less of a pitch-based carbon fiber is included. A total addition amount of additives excluding the fluorocarbon resin is 25 volume % or less.
