French translation:rondelle à méplat
Explanation:
En d'autres termes, soit l'extérieur, soit l'intérieur de la rondelle n'est pas parfaitement ronde, mais à une "face" plate qui sert de détrompeur ou qqchose dans le genre. Tourner la rondelle permet de retirer un composant. Remettre la rondelle à sa position initiale bloque le composant (parce que la chorde "manquante" s'est éclipsé).
