The Examiner has not provided adequate reasoning to demonstrate that one skilled in the art could not ascertain, in light of the Specification, whether or not a material has a coefficient of friction similar to nylon so as to satisfy the limitation in question.  See, e.g., Andrew Corp. v. Gabriel Electronics, Inc., 847 F.2d 819, 821-23 (Fed. Cir. 1988).  As Appellants correctly point out (Reply Br. 2), the fact that "the coefficient of friction of nylon can vary depending of [sic] the form it is in and how tightly woven it is" (Final Act. 3; Ans. 10-11) is an issue that relates to breadth, not indefiniteness.
