NATIONAL FOREWORD
This Indian Standard which is identical with ISO 4383:2000 ‘Plain bearings — Multitayer materials for
thin-walled plain bearings’ issued bythe International Organization for Standardization (ISO) was adopted
by the Bureau of Indian Standards on the recommendations of the Bearings Sectional Committee and
approval of the Medical Instruments, General and Production Engineering Division Council.
The text of the ISO Standard has been approved as suitable for publication as an hdian Standard
without deviations. Certain conventions are, however, not identical to those used in Indian Standards.
Attention is particularly drawn to the following:
a) Wherever the words ‘International Standard’ appear referring to this standard, they should
be read as ‘Indian Standard’.
b) Comma (,) has been used as adecimal marker while in Indian Standards, the current practice
is to use a point (.) as the decimal marker.
In this adopted standard, reference appears to the following International Standard for which Indian
Standard also exists. The corresponding Indian Standard which isto be substituted in its plate is listed
below along with its degree of equivalence for the edition indicated:

The technical committee responsible for the preparation of this standard has reviewed the provisions of
the following International Standards and has decided that they are acceptable for use in conjunction
with this shndard:

PLAIN BEARINGS — MULTILAYER MATERIALS
FOR THIN-WALLED PLAIN BEARINGS
1 Scope
This International Standard specifies requirements for multilayer materials for the manufacture of thin-walled plain
bearings (half bearings, bushes, thrust washers). The multilayer material consists of a steel backing, the bearing
layer (cast, sintered, rollbonded) and possibly an electrodeposited overlay.
NOTE Environmental concerns will,inthefuture, restrictthe use ofsome matetials such as lead.
2 Normative references
The following normative documents contain provisions which, through reference inthis text, constitute provisions of
this International Standard. For dated references, subsequent amendments to, or revisions of, any of these
publications do not apply. However, parties to agreements based on this International Standard are encouraged to
investigate the possibility of applying the most recent editions of the normative documents indicated below. For
undated references, the latest edition of the normative document referred to applies. Members of ISO and IEC
maintain registers ofcurrently valid International Standards.

3.4 Overlays
Overlays in accordance with Table 5 may be applied for bearing metal layers as indicated in Table A.2. The
thickness of the overlay and any additional layers between the bearing metal layer and the overlay shall be the
subject of agreement between the manufacturer and purchaser.
