Abstract
A method of manufacturing male bimetal slippers includes the steps of forming a stem having opposite first and second ends; rigidly affixing a ball on the first end of the stem to form a male slipper body; and capacitance discharge welding a wear pad to the second end of the stem. To manufacture female bimetal slippers the method includes forming a slipper body of a first material, the body having opposite first and second ends, the first end having a ball socket formed therein; and capacitance discharge welding a wear pad of a second material to the second end of the body.
