Tubes doigt de gant. Ce sont des tubes réalisés en acier inoxydable étirés à froid, sans soudure, livrés à l'état écroui [...] Ils sont insérés à travers la buselure d'étanchéité dans les tubes de guidage; ils subissent donc un cintrage équivalent à celui des tubes de guidage avant de pénétrer dans la cuve (rayon de courbure égal à 2,50 m). Ils sont terminés à leur extrémité supérieure par une ogive soudée et à leur extrémité inférieure, par une pièce en forme de collerette servant de liaison avec la buselure d'étanchéité. 1, record 2, French, - tube%20doigt%20de%20gant
