This document establishes terms, descriptions and characteristics and provides typical photos of specified surface imperfections which can be found on finished silicon nitride rolling elements.

Rolling elements refer to balls and rollers. Imperfections defined in this document correspond to patterns found on finished rolling elements before use.

Deviations for the geometric product specifications (GPS) are not addressed in this document.
