THE METHOD OF MAKING A BIMETALLIC BEARING WHICH COMPRISES THE STEPS OF: SELECTING A LAYER OF ALUMINUM ALLOY CONSISTING ESSENTIALLY OF TIN 10% TO 35%, COPPER 0.5% TO 2%, AND THE BALANCE SUBSTANTIALLY ALUMINUM; SELECTING A BACKING LAYER OF LOW CARBON STEEL; CLEANING AND SEVERELY ROUGHENING THE BONDING INTERFACES OF SAID TWO LAYERS AND SUBSTANTIALLY IMMEDIATELY THEREAFTER OF SAID TWO LAYERS AND SUBSTANTIALLY IMMEDIATELY THEREAFTER PASSING SAID LAYERS TOGETHER THROUGH PRESSURE ROLLS HAVING A TEMPERATURE WITHIN THE RANGE 200-350*F. TO DIRECTLY BOND SAID LAYERS TOGETHER FACE TO FACE, THE PRESSURE OF SAID ROLLS ON SAID LAYERS BEING SUCH AS TO REDUCE THE THICKNESS OF THE ALUMINUM LAYER BETWEEN 50% AND 70% TO EFFECT A STRONG METALLURGICAL BOND THEREBETWEEN TO FORM A BIMETAL LAYER AND TO MAINTAIN THE TEMPERATURE OF SAID ROLLS WITHIN THE RANGE 200-350*F.; CUTTING SAID BIMETAL LAYER INTO SECTIONS AND FORMING SAID SECTIONS INTO SUITABLE BEARING SHAPES.
