A solution is given for the tangential tractions developed between two rolling cylinders of identical elastic materials, whose axes are slightly misaligned. A critical misalignment angle is found, above which slip occurs throughout the contact area. For smaller angles, the contact area contains regions of adhesion and microslip. Results are given for the extent of these regions and for the axial force generated due to the misalignment.
