frictionaladj.

Brit.

/ˈfrɪkʃn̩(ə)l/, U.S.

/ˈfrɪkʃ(ə)nəl/

Etymology: < friction n. + -al suffix¹.

Of or pertaining to friction, moved or produced by friction. frictional electricity, electricity developed by friction (see electricity n. 1). frictional escapement in Watch-making and Clock-making, an escapement receiving and transmitting motion by friction. frictional gearing (-wheels), wheels which transmit motion by friction instead of by teeth. frictional resistance, the resistance of surfaces due to friction; esp. the resistance to slipping of riveted joints by the contraction of the rivets (Lockwood).
