2nd try Exhaust Manifold part
|
|
Sorry about that enooooooooooooooooormous picture.
Let �s try again. The name of this part in Portuguese and French is "bicone". It is a very specific part that connects the exhaust manifold and the engine. Does anyone know the English word? German would also be useful. Thanks!
In dictionaries, it appears metal gland/bicone/conn plug (Schneidring) but it �s not the same. In the automobile industry it must have a different name.

I �m going to ask my husband when he comes back from work. He might know the German word for this automotive component. ;) If he does, I �ll let you know asap!! :))

From the Proz.com search engine - an international translators zone
I found the following:
a mechanical engineering term - in the field of industry
translation of the French/Portuguese term BICONE in English is:
1) gas installation
2) CONE-UNION BODY
3) OLIVE FITTING/TERMINAL/NIPPLE
4) FLARE-TYPE TUBE FITTING
5) NIPPLE
The above is from Franco Mori �s glossary meccanica - a technical translator in English, French, Spanish, Italian with almost 30 years of experience.
I hope it helps.
