tensioned cross-piece Explanation: Hi Rowan, if you look at the Zugtraverse hits on google they all mostly have to do with trains! In this case, from the info you have given I would indeed go for your suggestion as it makes sense (do you have a diagram of the setup?). However, I would use cross-piece rather than bar as it is slightly more vague (could also be a cross-wire) |

tensile traverse Explanation: unfortunately all web references refer to bridges other than dental. Zug- = tensile accdg. to Bucksch traverse = a part of a structure that extends or is fixed across something. HTH |
