Would this help?

Discovery is key to metal wear in sliding parts
Quote:
This sequence of images reveals surprising fluid-like behavior in a solid piece of metal sliding over another, forming defects leading to wear in metal parts. (Top) Two image frames of the material flow showing how these defects are spawned in the wake of the contact. (Bottom) Scanning electron microscope pictures of the corresponding wear surfaces showing a tear and a crack. Wear particles are formed when the tears and cracks detach from the surfaces.

REM Isotropic Superfinish
Quote:
REM Surface Engineering’s ISF Process produces a surface that has several key advantages over other “superfinishing” techniques. The resulting surface is asperity free, with a non-directional (isotropic) texture. The surface has an increased bearing ratio and enhances the lubricant retention properties of the mating surface.

Not that I can afford this stuff, but it's there.
