A manufacturing method of a clad material composed of a bronze alloy and a steel is provided, including: scattering a bronze alloy powder on a steel back metal; sintering the bronze alloy powder to obtain a bilayer material having a porous bronze alloy layer on the steel; dry-rolling and a sintering the bilayer material so that the bronze alloy layer has a porosity of 3% or less; and wet-rolling the bilayer material with supplying a rolling oil to surfaces of rolling rolls. The clad manufactured according to this method can be heat-treated without an disadvantage in a conventional wet-rolling that entering rolling oil vaporizes in the bronze alloy layer during the heat treatment to form new voids. Therefore, it becomes possible to make a bronze alloy layer high in density in small times of rolling, thus enabling an increase in production efficiency.

Method of manufacturing a clad material of bronze alloy and steel

There is disclosed a composite slide member which suppresses the exposure of a porous metal layer even when the amount of cutting from a surface of the slide member increases, thereby enhancing an anti-seizing property without adversely affecting a rear resistance. The composite slide member includes a back plate, and a slide layer including a porous metal layer with a porosity of 50% to 80% and a composite synthetic resin composition impregnated and coated in pores of the porous metal layer. The porous metal layer is joined to a surface of the back plate. The porous metal layer is formed by sintering metal powder without applying pressure thereto, and an apparent density of the metal powder is 20% to 40% of its theoretical density. The porous metal and the composite synthetic resin are dispersed on a sliding surface of the slide layer in a substantially mixed condition.
