Abstract

There are provided a copper alloy for a slide bearing and a slide bearing, which can prevent Mn—Si primary crystals from causing seizure. The copper alloy for a slide bearing and a slide bearing according to the present invention contain 25 wt % or more and 48 wt % or less of Zn, 1 wt % or more and 7 wt % or less of Mn, 0.5 wt % or more and 3 wt % or less of Si, and 1 wt % or more and 10 wt % or less of Bi, the balance consisting of inevitable impurities and Cu, wherein there exist, in a sliding surface on which a counter material slides, Bi particles having a circle equivalent diameter larger than the average circle equivalent diameter of Mn—Si primary crystals and Bi particles having a circle equivalent diameter smaller than the average circle equivalent diameter of the Mn—Si primary crystals.
