Record 2 2017-05-31

English

Subject field(s)
  • Pipes and Fittings
CONT

In small sizes, the compression fitting is composed of an outer compression nut and an inner compression ring or ferrule (sometimes referred to as an "olive") that is typically made of brass or copper. Ferrules vary in shape and material but are most commonly in the shape of a ring with beveled edges. To work properly, the ferrule must be oriented correctly – usually the ferrule is fitted such that the longest sloping face of the ferrule faces away from the nut.

OBS

compression fitting: term officially approved by the Lexicon Project Committee (New Brunswick).

French

Domaine(s)
  • Tuyauterie et raccords
DEF

Raccord par serrage d’une garniture composée d’une rondelle métallique légèrement conique, associée à une rondelle de caoutchouc.

CONT

On retrouve divers modèles de raccords à compression, mais le principe de base demeure le même, c'est-à-dire que lorsqu'on serre l'écrou sur le corps du raccord, la bague avant se resserre par sa partie conique et, simultanément, assure une étanchéité parfaite.

OBS

raccord à compression : terme uniformisé par le Comité du projet de lexiques (Nouveau-Brunswick).

Record 6 2010-05-19

English

Subject field(s)
  • Opening and Closing Devices (Packaging)
DEF

A secondary closure for wine and alcohol bottles, provided with a long skirt making them more decorative.

OBS

The vertical wall of a closure cap below the shoulder is referred to as a skirt.

OBS

Although the terms "closure" and "cap" may be seen as different when standing alone, we think they should be recognized as synonyms when properly qualified.

French

Domaine(s)
  • Modes d'ouverture et de fermeture (Emball.)
DEF

Capsule pour vins et spiritueux habillant très bas le col des bouteilles.

OBS

Capsule Stelcap, capsule Supalu et capsule Aluquick jupe longue [...] Il s’agit [...] de capsules spéciales à vis [...] fabriquées à partir de plaques d’aluminium de 25/100 embouti. La partie supérieure de cet embouti, filetée sur la bague à vis du récipient après compression du joint, se détache, au dévissage, de la partie inférieure. Quant à cette dernière, qui est très importante, elle habille, en descendant très bas, le col de la bouteille dont elle reste solidaire après ouverture. Elle est donc bien également une capsule de surbouchage.

OBS

De nos jours, on dénote aussi l’emploi de capsules à jupe longue faites à base de matières plastiques (polychlorure de vinyle, polyéthylène, etc.).
