Bearings
Bearings are machine elements created to help reduce friction between two moving parts by providing a surface that one faction can roll on as opposed to sliding over. They are constructed using smooth rollers (call them metal balls) and smooth inner as well as outer surfaces. The rollers are the load carriers for the device using the bearing by allowing them to spin freely.
