German term or phrase: Blindbohrung
From the diagram this looks like a Bohrung that does not penetrate all the way through the material, but only approximately half way, where it meets yet another 'Blindbohrung' at right angles, to form an L-shaped hole through the material.

Would 'blind bore' be an appropriate translation?
