The Wyzenbeek test is an abrasion test that tests the
fabric's ability to withstand surface wear from rubbing. In
this test, the fabric is pulled taut in a frame and rubbed
in both the warp and weft (filling) directions, using a
piece of #10 cotton duck fabric as the abradant. The
number of cycles, or double rubs, completed before the
fabric shows noticeable wear is counted and determines the
abrasion rating.
