A sliding material includes a sliding surface member, a base member made of a material different from the sliding surface member, a bonding material layer disposed between the sliding surface member and the base member so as to bond the sliding surface member and the base member, and a sheet member made of an electromagnetic induction heating material. The sliding material is manufactured by bonding the sliding surface member and the base member by heating and melting the bonding material layer through electromagnetic induction heating of the sheet member.
