Abstract
The present invention provides a sliding member which enables further reduction of friction and improvement of seizure resistance without deteriorating wear resistance of a sliding surface. The sliding member includes a porous metal base material, and a resin material with which the porous metal base material is impregnated. The sliding member includes an exposed sliding surface. The sliding surface includes a top surface made of the resin material, and a bottom surface made of the porous metal base material. A height from the bottom surface to the top surface is 10 to 30 μm, and the resin material includes fluorine resin.
