A wear resistant transport web (12) having a flexible base layer (76), and a first bonding layer (84) at least partially surrounding and bonded to the base layer (76). The wear resistant transport web (12) further comprises a first layer (86) comprising a corrosion resistant material, wherein said corrosion resistant material is electroplated nickel or electroless nickel, at least partially surrounds and is bonded to the first bonding layer (84) of the transport web (12). In addition, the wear resistant transport web (120 has a second bonding layer (88) is provided that at least partially surrounds and is bonded to the first layer (86). A second layer (90), comprising a wear and abrasion resistant material, wherein said wear and abrasion resistant materials is selected from the group consisting of: polyurethane; acrylic; silicon dioxide; alumina; chromium oxide; zirconium oxide; composites of zirconia-alumina; or a mixture thereof. The second layer (90) at least partially surrounds and is bonded to the second bonding layer.
