Transform faults are strike-slip faults that occur at the boundary between two plates of the earth's crust and do not produce or destroy lithosphere. Divergent faults produce new sea floor, while convergent faults occur when two plates collide underneath and create underground mountains.
They are common at transform boundaries because strike-slip faults move up and down like transform boundaries.

The Strike Slip faults
Transform faults are strike-slip faults that occur at the boundary between two plates of the earth's crust and do not produce or destroy lithosphere. Divergent faults produce new sea floor, while convergent faults occur when two plates collide underneath and create underground mountains.
The two types of faults that can result in mountains are reverse faults and normal faults.
They are common at transform boundaries because strike-slip faults move up and down like transform boundaries.

Transform and normal faults form along mid-ocean ridges such as the Mid-Atlantic ridge.
