Tech/Engineering - Mechanics / Mech Engineering | | Dutch term or phrase: steekflens | | Some kind of flange, I can see, but what is this in English? Surprisingly, Kluwer GPW has no reference to this. |
| | | connecting flange | Explanation:
I was thinking valves originally. I'm pretty sure this the "rim" around e.g. hose or pipe connectors.
You also get "insteekflensen".
The "steekflens" could best be described as the seating for a seal.
