Method of bonding a metallic component to a non-metallic component using a compliant material

A means for attaching a metallic component to a non-metallic component using a compliant material having thermal properties intermediate those of the metallic component to a non-metallic component is provided. The method can accommodate CTE mismatches and wear-type problems common to many assemblies of dissimilar materials. In particular, the method provides a sufficient wear surface to accommodate relative motion and provide a durable wear surface that does not excessively wear/gall/mico-weld itself together and provides the necessary damping and motion for proper operation in aeronautical applications.

A bearing component including a first metallic material and a second metallic material. The first metallic material provides a first carbon content and the second metallic material presents a second carbon content. The first metallic material and the second metallic material have been joined by a diffusion welding process. The diffusion welding process results in a transition zone with a varying carbon content between the first metallic material and the second metallic material. Varying carbon content in the transition zone is within an interval and the interval end points are defined by the carbon contents of the first metallic material and the second metallic material.
