[general] Would wear and tear of a loop-travelling object cause its casual-loop to break?

Eg. Consider an empty space, then a ball appeared right when time starts ticking. The ball stayed in the space for 10 seconds, then vanished back to 10 seconds ago to exist when there was nothing 10 seconds ago, causing the ball to exist like the beginning.

Since the ball would age (really slowly) every 10-second duration while it lasted, would the paradox break if the ball breaks due to wear and tear after a thousand years or so (like, billions of seconds)?

The way you've set that up, yea, the loop would eventually break.  And it's not really a causal loop for that reason.  It's more just a ball being repeatedly sent back in time.  
A causal loop generally has an older version of a thing acting on a younger version of itself in order to perpetuate the loop.  In this way, aging is not a factor because the loop always starts with a young version of the object.
