A form of lubrication between two rubbing surfaces without development of a full-fluid lubricating film. Additives which provide for a stronger oil film increase the effectiveness of boundary lubrication by preventing excessive friction. There are varying degrees of boundary lubrication, depending on the harshness of the service.
