A sprocket wheel, which is a machine component configured to slide relative to a bushing while being in contact with the bushing in an outer peripheral surface, includes a base made of a first metal, and an overlay that covers the base so as to constitute the outer peripheral surface. The surface of the overlay constituting the outer peripheral surface has been smoothed. Such a smoothed surface of the overlay makes the sprocket wheel less damaging to the bushing.

A method for producing a metallic component, The method includes the method steps of first machining (103) the component and thereafter cooling (105) the component from a first temperature down to a lower second temperature. The cooling (105) occurs after the machining (103) of the component.
