Wear part
Component with limited service life.
Brakes, clutch, or timing belts are rated by condition. Mileage and visual inspection matter. In German used-parts trade, Wear part is an everyday term. Recyclers should use it consistently in the team and ERP so search, eBay listings, and customer communication align. Technically correct maintenance saves inquiries and reduces returns. Document relevant attributes in structured fields instead of free text only. Train new staff specifically on this term, especially at vehicle intake and part capture.
