A snap-on coupler bearing plate for application to resiliently supported coupler carriers of AAR standard F type interlocking coupler applications, in which the bearing plate is in the form of a channel shaped member formed from an ultra high molecular weight polymer of dry self lubricating characteristics that is shaped to overlie and be snap fitted to the load support plate of the coupler carrier. The bearing plate is of integral one piece construction and defines an upwardly facing slide surface on which the coupler wear plate rides that is characterized by effecting resurfacing of the coupler wear plate surfacing engaging same to make such wear plate surfacing effectively resistant against wear.
