Abstract
A half plain bearing that has a positioning member with a novel construction, and a manufacturing method of the half plain bearing are proposed. If part of a material from which a bearing bodyis formed is allowed to escape to outside of a tool with a narrow width when pressed by the tool, an amount of protrusion needed for a positioning memberto perform a function thereof (an amount of protrusion from an outer peripheral face of the bearing body) can be ensured while suppressing an amount of deformation of the material from which the bearing bodyis formed in a circumferential direction thereof. The positioning memberof the half plain bearing thus formed has a flat portionand a protrusion portion. A tip of the protrusion portionis located on a mating face side with respect to a virtual plane that includes the flat portion
