ABSTRACT OF THE DISCLOSURE A wear member for use between a pair of relatively movable com- ponents of a railway vehicle and method of making same are provided herein. Such wear member comprises a metal support adapted to be supported on one of the pair of components and a liner attached to the metal support. The liner is made of a polymeric matrix material which is reinforced by a metal structure having openings therein. Such metal structure is disposed sub- stantially centrally between opposed surfaces of the polymeric material. The opposed surfaces include a smooth antifriction wear surface engageable by the other of the pair of relatively moveable components. The liner is attached in position by metal members extending between the metal structure and the metal support through polymeric material disposed between the metal structure and metal support and its associated arm of the opposed surfaces with a plurality of welds welding the metal members in position between the metal structure and the metal support. Such wear member is less sub- ject to wear and under normal pressure during use is less likely to have the tendency to "cold flow". The wear member also has more self supporting structural strength and need not be used between confining bearing sur- faces which it serves to lubricate.
