Abstract

L'invention concerne un appariement de paliers comportant un premier élément palier (1) et un deuxième élément palier (2), le premier élément palier (1) formant un siège de vilebrequin ou un pied de bielle à loger dans une petite tête de bielle et le deuxième élément palier (2) constituant une tête de bielle ou un support de palier d'un carter-moteur pour former avec le premier élément palier (1) un palier lisse. Un des éléments paliers (1, 2) a un revêtement superficiel à propriétés de lubrification à sec, ce revêtement comprenant une couche de base (20) faite d'un métal, d'un carbure métallique ou d'un alliage métallique, et une couche de couverture (30) externe ayant des propriétés de lubrification à sec. La surface orientée vers la couche de couverture (30) de l'autre élément palier (2, 1) est dotée d'évidements (5) de type pores, dans lesquels peut se loger du matériau libéré par frottement de la couche de couverture (30).
