English to French translations [PRO]
Tech/Engineering - Engineering: Industrial / coupling
English term or phrase: bolt circle diameter on the flanges
Technical documentation (the object is a flexible coupling made by euroflex)

Context: "To compensate for these clearances and to ensure that the components adjacent to the disc packs remain concentric the bolt circle diameter on the flanges is made slightly greater than that of the disc packs."

Oh and I got a problem with that disc pack too, I'm sure it's definitely NOT a pile de disques ;-)

Thanx for the help

diamètre de boulonnage des brides


Explanation:
On pourrait aussi bien dire "le cercle de boulonnage". C'est un cercle imaginaire passant par le centre de chacun des boulons (ou perçages) disposés en cercle autour d'un élément.
