One way to better isolate the smaller cable and prevent damages, to that (which is hard-wired
into the adapter itself) would be to try and get the 'power adapter extension cable.'
That goes where the AC power plug-in 'duck-head' is; made
to accept optional accessory cable to replace this toggle head.

Some resellers have inventories of official Apple (power AC charger, etc)
plus other accessories and upgrade parts.

You may find more than one Official part (by number) that work correctly, sometimes
at fair discount through an authorized mac-centric reseller such as OWC, online.

The wire you have issue with, is not end-user replaceable.
Good luck & happy trails!🌻🐝

The portion of the 85 w cable the goes into the wall to the adapter is fine. The portion that connects from the adapter to the 15" Mac is fraying
The power adapter and cord are an integrated unit.
Can I buy just the charger portion that includes the connector to the Mac?
No.
For what it's worth those power adapters (including the cord) will last the life of your Mac if you handle it in accordance with Apple's instructions, here:
Using and maintaining your Apple MagSafe Adapter
Reducing cable strain on your MagSafe power adapter
OWC sells genuine Apple MagSafe power adapters for about $50.
the power portion of the cord has a square end that plugs into what I guess would be the charger. The charger has a much smaller wire that then with the rectangular end plugs into the mac pro. MacBook Pro (Retina, 15-inch, Mid 2014).
