English term or phrase: tang
Bonsoir,

Je cherche une traduction pour "tangs" dans le contexte suivant :

"To remove terminal pin from plug/socket
Thoroughly clean the area around the plug and socket connection. Immobilise the vehicle. Turn the battery isolator switch to off or disconnect the battery. If necessary place the access platform as close as possible to the plug and socket connection. Separate plug and socket. Locate appropriate pin removal tool over terminal pin or socket and push removal tool into plug or socket to close tangs on terminal. Pull wire complete with terminal from plug or socket. If replacing terminal, cut wire through the middle of the terminal crimp to minimize wire loss."

détail / éclaté d'un connecteur et photos des "locking tangs"

"Note that you do not need a great deal of force to depress a lock tang. If the terminal is not easily freed, you probably have simply not found the lock tang. The connector face, pick tool and terminal can be damaged by applying too much force."
