The word is "chafing" (abrading).
"Chaffing" (joking/teasing) is a completely different word.

The words are of completely different origin, one from Latin the other from middle English. They just happen to be one letter off from one another.

Sorry, probably no one else cares, but to me it is as irritating as using affect when effect is intended, for example.
