  • Sliding material and sliding member using the sliding material
    Patent number: 8252733
    Abstract: To provide a sliding material whose superficial sliding characteristics can be modified in compliance with the requirements of sliding component parts without ever changing the surface roughness of sliding material very much by means of shot blasting treatment, and to provide a sliding member using the sliding material. A sliding material according to the present invention is characterized in that it comprises: a metallic substrate; and an adhered metal being formed by mechanical adhesion by means of shot blasting metallic particles, which are softer than said metallic substrate and whose friction coefficients are smaller than that of said metallic substrate, onto a sliding surface of said metallic substrate so as to cover 8% or more of the sliding surface of said metallic substrate.
