Helpful friction is a phenomenon that most often manifests itself in the roofing industry. Without it, many of America's roofers would acquire broken ankles during flash rain showers.
Basically its something that we want to happen, e.g. in brake pads, when you want to slow down in your car, you hit the brakes this causes friction on the wheel, causing it to stop, the wheel then creates friction between itself and the road causing kinetic energy to be converted to heat, eventually making it stop.
