Italian term or phrase: che forma un angolo acuto

Si tratta di un tubo con alette che formano un agolo acuto con l'asse del tubo, da descrivere in un documento tecnico.
Tradurrei con "equipped with fins lying at an acute angle with the pipe axis", ma mi sembra che suoni orribile.
E' solo una mia fisima, o effettivamente si traduce in altro modo?
