abrasiveness of dacron

Someone has proposed a protective layer of oiled Dacron-Mylar-Dacron (common eltecric winding insulation I bet) between a steel shaft and babbit bearing going crosscountry together.

If some shifting occurs is the dacron likely to scratch the babbit?

Thanks,

No. Unless it gets some grit, such as sand, in it.
