German term or phrase: mit gegenseitiger abstand
In a patent relating to a protective tube cover: Dünnwändiger Schutzrohr mit quergewellter, längsgeschlitzter Wandung ... in der Rohrwandung längs des Schlitzes mit gegenseitigem Abstand angeordnete, warzenartige Ausstülpungen ausgebildet sind, die durch eine abtrennbare Außenwand verschlossen und vom Schlitz geteilt sind, und daß die Außenwand außerhalb der Außenkontur des Rohres angeordnet ist.

Thanks very much,

on either side of the slit and at a distance from it
Explanation:
sounds fairly plausible. I think there is a series/row of "warzenartige Ausstülpungen" on each side of the "Längsschlitz".

Without more context, though, it's hard to be sure.

  -> "nub-like salients" if you're charging by the word, otherwise maybe "pips". :) Thanks, Klaus.
