tear resistance
Fabric's structural integrity
Tear resistance is a material's ability to withstand being ripped or torn once a cut or nick has started.
Fabrics, plastics, and papers are tested for tear resistance to determine durability: The backpack's tear resistance makes it ideal for hiking.
High tear resistance means the material won't easily propagate a tear under stress.
