C'est le terme "rail" qui me pose problème. Voici un contexte :

"ONE REGULAR RAIL AND ONE TAB RAIL PER CYLINDER. TAB RAIL CAN BE INSTALLED ABOVE OR BELOW EXPANDER WITH TAB POINTING TOWARDS EXPANDER."

écartement du rail (du segment racleur)
Explanation:
"NOTE:
You cannot measure the end gap on the
expander spacer of the oil control ring. If the oil
control ring rails show excessive gap, replace
all three rings.

"Il n’est pas possible de mesurer l’écartement des becs
de la bague extensible du segment racleur d’huile. Si
les rails du segment racleur d’huile présentent un
écartement excessif, remplacer les trois segments."
