Engineering (general)
English term or phrase: deterioration
Sammenheng: If the Oring or Seal Washer is nicked, cut, or shows signs of deterioration, it must be replaced.

I ordbøker finner jeg en oversettelse som sier forringelse, men jeg synes ikke det er noe bra. Er det noe som har en bedre oversettelse?
Takker på forhånd for all hjelp.

skade


Explanation:
Jeg synes "skade" høres mer naturlig ut, selv om "forringelse" fungerer greit det også.
