The damaging of one or both metallic surfaces by removal of particles from localized areas due to seizure during sliding friction Developing a condition on the rubbing surface of one or both mating parts where excessive friction between high spots results in localized welding with substantial spalling and a further roughening of the surface
Surface damage when two materials slide against each other, resulting in localized welding of high spots Typically refers to Al or Cu sticking in wire drawing dies and the resultant drawn wire damage
causing irritation or annoyance; "tapping an annoying rhythm on his glass with his fork"; "aircraft noise is particularly bothersome near the airport"; "found it galling to have to ask permission"; "an irritating delay"; "nettlesome paperwork"; "a pesky mosquito"; "swarms of pestering gnats"; "a plaguey newfangled safety catch"; "a teasing and persistent thought annoyed him"; "a vexatious child"; "it is vexing to have to admit you are wrong"
A form of wear in which seizing or tearing of the gear or bearing surface occurs (099)
An severe form of adhesive wear which occurs during sliding contact of one surface relative to another Clumps of one part stick to the mating part and break away from the surface (Can frequently occur when both the nut and bolt are zinc coated )
A metal condition that occurs between the facing surfaces of two mating metal products Excessive friction between the high spots of these two products results in momentary adhesion and subsequent surface deterioration
(1) a condition whereby excessive friction between mating parts results in localized welding; subsequent spalling and a further roughening of the rubbing surfaces may follow; (2) a severe form of scuffing associated with gross damage to the surfaces or failure
