A bearing for a fuel pump includes a sliding layer made of mainly carbon, and
a
supporting layer made of mainly carbon and a metal. The supporting layer is connected
to the sliding layer to support the sliding layer. Because the sliding layer of
the bearing is made of mainly carbon, corrosion resistance of the bearing can be
improved. Further, the supporting layer improves the strength of the bearing. Accordingly,
the bearing with the two-layer structure effectively improves the corrosion resistance
while the strength thereof can be increased. The bearing can be suitably used for
the fuel pump. In this case, the bearing is press-fitted to a casing member on
the supporting layer, and a rotary shaft of the fuel pump is slidably held in the
bearing on the sliding layer.
