A process of making a wear-resistant actuating lever is disclosed. The wear-resistant actuating lever includes a lever body made of metal and an integrally molded cover layer made of a polytetrafluoroethylene-based material. The lever body includes a head segment having an upper major surface, a cam-forming surface, a through hole, and at least one upper concavity formed in the upper major surface. The integrally molded cover layer covers on the head segment and is molded thereon using plastic injection molding, and includes an upper portion covering an upper major surface, a cam portion covering a cam-forming surface, and an upper protuberance portion in the upper concavity.
