SLIDE SURFACE CONSTRUCTION FORMED OF AGGREGATE OF FE CRYSTALS HAVING BODY-CENTERED CUBIC STRUCTURE

摘要

A slide surface construction is formed of an aggregate ofFe crystals having a body-centered cubic structure. Theaggregate includes (3hh0) oriented metal crystals with their(3hh0) planes (by Miller indices) oriented toward a slidesurface. The content S of said (3hh0) oriented metal crystalsis set in a range represented by S ~ 40%. This makes itpossible to provide a slide surface construction which has apredetermined hardness and an excellent wear resistance andensures that the wearing of a mating member having a lowerhardness can be suppressed.
