Tech/Engineering - Manufacturing / Dental equipment
Italian term or phrase: Canale di sfogo
I'm translating an outline description of a curing flask for making dental prostheses where reference is made to "canali/canale di sfogo" (see also previous question: canale di colata). Any ideas for the best way to translate this term into English? Here are a couple of examples:
- Preparazione: verifica posizione canali di colata e sfogo
- Diametro consigliato canale di sfogo: 6/8 mm
Thanks for your help, Sarah
