We have similar problems with the footswitches on the smaller CNC machines. PVC coated Kopex is about the best stuff we’ve found, everything else just ends up getting cut to shreds by the swarf embedded in the operators safety boots.
Occasional re-education of the operators helped get them to stop chucking it around as much and drastically cut down on the number of replacements each year. A very large stillson works wonders.
