wear-resistant
Hard to erode
Wear-resistant describes materials or surfaces that withstand friction, abrasion, and repeated use without degrading quickly: wear-resistant flooring, a wear-resistant coating on the drill bit.
The term appears in product specifications and engineering contexts where durability matters.
