Explanation:
I suggest you leave the English in "", and add a German term such as this by way of explanation. The English term is clearly colloquial, or by way of being an in-house nickname.

Notes to answerer
Asker: If there is anything like a colloguial technical term, this certainly is one. I will leave the English in "" but I am not very happy with the translation. But thanks for confirming my assumption that this word is not commonly known.
