unfeelable
Cannot be sensed
Something unfeelable cannot be felt or perceived through touch or sensation.
The word applies to things too subtle, too abstract, or too removed from physical experience to register: The tumor was unfeelable during examination.
It can extend to emotions or qualities that resist being sensed: an unfeelable distance between them.
