Aangezien de zin inderdaad niet loopt met de dubbele negatie kun je er "hogere bestendigheid tegen remkrachtverlies" van maken.

slijtvastheid


Explanation:
het gaat hier duidelijk over vermindering van de remkracht als gevolg van (langdurig) gebruik. Maw: REMSLIJTAGE (cfr. links) Een betere weerstand komt dus overeen met slijtvastheid.

Example sentence(s):
  • Remmen met hogere wrijvingscoëfficiënt en slijtvastheid.
