It really has two meanings, one is to die as in they all perished at sea. The
other is often applied to soft materials like rubber and leather when they
become brittle and dry with age and start to deteriorate and break up. It
would not be applied to a solid part for example like a shaft or a bearing.

The definition I got for the the term "perished", mostly by osmosis, is that
it is a term used by the Brits for worn out.  If you look through your
Bentley
repair manual you'll see this term used a lot, sort of like Bonnett, wings
and
hood (top).
