Abstract
A synchronizer ring having a stabilized friction characteristic relative to a taper cone and having sufficient mechanical strength and anti-abrasion characteristic. The synchronizer ring is made from a ferrous sintered alloy containing 0.2 to 1.0% by weight of carbon, 8.0 to 15.0% by weight of copper, 0.1 to 7.0% by weight of at least one component selected from a group consisting of chromium, manganese, molybdenum, and phosphorus, and balance iron and inevitable impurities. A free copper is precipitated in a matrix of the sintered alloy. Porosity of the sintered alloy is from 3 to 8 vol %.
