This disc brake is a device that obtains a braking force by friction between a brake disc and a brake lining (friction material). For example, in the case of a railway vehicle, a donut-shaped disk-shaped sliding surface and its sliding surface are used. A base is mounted on a rotating part such as a wheel while supporting the surface at a rear portion, and a braking force is obtained by pressing a brake lining against a sliding surface that is rotating during traveling. A disc-shaped component having this sliding surface is called a brake disc.

Heretofore, an integral brake disc such as cast iron, forged steel or stainless steel has been used. However, due to demands for higher speed of vehicles, weight reduction as an energy saving measure to protect the global environment, and improvement of ride comfort by reducing unsprung weight, there has been a trend to use aluminum and aluminum alloy for brake discs. Have been. Aluminum and aluminum alloys are inferior in any of wear resistance, heat resistance, and heat cracking resistance to cast iron and forged steel.However, since the frictional heat generated is quickly dissipated due to good thermal conductivity, It is possible to keep the temperature rise of the running surface much lower than the steel brake disc. Therefore, the heat resistance and the heat crack resistance do not decrease as much as estimated from the material strength. However, since the strength is low, the wear resistance is significantly poor, and it has been said that it is difficult to apply aluminum or an aluminum alloy itself to a brake disc.

10MPa or more and wear amount of 0.05mm or less, it has excellent tensile properties and wear properties. Since these materials were manufactured by powder metallurgy and spray forming, A
The average particle size of the l-Fe intermetallic compound is as fine as 0.2 to 0.4 μm, and particularly excellent in high temperature tensile properties.

On the other hand, the material of No. 15 of the comparative example is S
Since the dispersion of iC is as small as 3% by weight, the wear amount is 0.2 mm.
And many. The material of No. 16 had a large amount of SiC dispersion of 35% by weight, so that cracks occurred during forging. However, as a result of cutting out a test piece from a portion having no crack and performing a test, the tensile elongation at 300 ° C. is as low as 9%. In the material of No. 17, the particle size of the SiC particles was as small as 0.5 μm, and the SiC particles aggregated and could not be uniformly dispersed. Therefore, the wear amount is as large as 0.1 mm. The material of No. 18 has poor machinability because the SiC particles have a large particle size of 30 μm. However, although the amount of wear is as small as 0.05 mm or less, abrasion of the pin material is large and it is not suitable as a brake material.

The material No. 23 was produced by the compo-casting method from the material No. 2 of the invention.
The average particle size of the l-Fe intermetallic compound particles was as large as 10 μm, and cracks occurred during forging. However, a test piece was cut out from a portion having no crack, and as a result of the test, the tensile strength at room temperature and 300 ° C. was as low as 183 MPa and 107 MPa, and the elongation was as low as 1% and 4%. No. 24 material is JIS 5
It was manufactured by dispersing SiC powder in an Al—Mg-based aluminum alloy specified as an alloy 83 by a component casting method. Therefore, since no Al-Fe intermetallic compound particles are present, the tensile strength at 300 ° C is 1
