Italian term or phrase: Lamiera cieca
Hello,

same sort of thing for this question... I've worked out that cieca basically means "smooth" or without holes in this context, but I'm still not 100% sure.

the sentence is:

1) Chiudere i profili elettrificati con le lamiere cieche di alluminio tagliate a misura.

What do you think?

Thank you
