Russian term or phrase: ступени
"Минимальный расчетный коэффициент запаса для рым-болтов ступени f° = 2."

I have "The minimum design safety factor for eye bolts . . ." and then I don't know how to handle the rest other than literally. I'm guessing ступень is "degree" here, since there's a degree symbol following the f, but I don't know how to put it together. Anybody have an idea?

pitch (step)
Explanation:
The context tells about the eye-bolt fail-safe strength ( design safety factor of eye-bolt strength).Actually it is some clearance (margin) and may be the pitch or step of eye-bolt thread. I give only the idea for better understanding. To my mind it's better to put down "degree" - eye-bolts of zero degree =2".

To my mind it's not a stage of rocket or missile.It's a mechanical value of eye-bolt fail-safe strength.
