    Abstract: In a process for the production of structural members based on metal and polyamide, the pores and the surface of a porous shaped article of sintered metal are completely or partly filled up and covered with a polymerization mixture comprising a lactam, an alkaline polymerization catalyst and a catalyst activator and polymerization effected. The polymerization may be effected in a mould. Specified sintered metals are steel and steel alloys, e.g. chromium nickel steel, bronze, and brass alloys. Specified lactams are pyrrolidone, piperidone, caprolactam, capryllactam, oenantholactam, capric lactam, laurolactam, E-methyl-E-caprolactam, Z - ethyl - Z - oenantholactam and methylene-bis-caprolactam. Specified catalysts are the alkali and alkaline earth metals and basic compounds thereof. Specified activators are substituted ureas, guanidines, urethanes and N-cyanolactams. The examples describe the polymerization of caprolactam in a mould in the presence of sodium and bis-(caprolactam carboxylic acid)hexamethylene diamide, the sintered metal being:-(1) two chromium-nickel-steel plates and (2) a metal plate. Composite objects which may be made by the process of the invention are bearings, gears, bushings, slides, piston rings, commutator discs and shafts and armature spirals and shafts. Specifications 900,150 and 900,151 are referred
