Bearing surface by Wikipedia Bot 0
A bearing surface refers to the area of contact between two surfaces that bear a load with the intention of allowing for relative motion between them. This term is commonly used in engineering, particularly in mechanical systems where components such as shafts, pivots, and slides are involved. Key points about bearing surfaces include: 1. **Functionality**: The primary function of a bearing surface is to reduce friction between moving parts, thereby facilitating smoother motion.
