English term or phrase: Barrel face
Sorry, no context. This term appears on a component list for an air cooled 4-stroke gasoline OHV engine. The following terms on this list are "Piston ring", "Top ring" and "End gap". Hope this helps.

Explanation:
"barrel-face" s'applique au profi arrondi du premier segment du piston,

"The top ring (1) is of a barrel-face type of which sliding surface is a barrel (round) shape for a better initial fit, and also designed to prevent abnormal wear and seizure..
Le premier segment est un modèle cerclé dont la surface de coulissement (1) est arrondie pour améliorer l'ajustement initial Il a aussi été conçu pour empêcher l'usure anormale et les grippages."
