A method of manufacturing an enveloping layer-coated slide bearing includes preparing a slide bearing formed of polycarbonate, ABS resin, or an alloy material of the polycarbonate and the ABS resin; and forming an enveloping layer by injection molding a thermoplastic elastomer on an outer circumferential surface of the slide bearing. In an alternate method, an inner enveloping layer is formed directly on the outer circumferential outer surface of the slide bearing beneath the thermoplastic elastomeric enveloping layer.
