Stiction is the static friction that needs to be overcome to enable relative motion of stationary objects in contact. The term is a portmanteau of the term `static friction`, perhaps also influenced by the verb `stick`. Any solid objects pressing against each other (but not sliding) will require some threshold of force parallel to the surface ...

Stiction can be defined as a form of friction which is resistance to the start of movement as opposed to breakage' friction which is resistance to movement after the motion has started. Stiction in the dampers (suspension) is often the cause of the phenomenon known as 'locked up'. See also: Static Friction.
