Dans un combustible pour réacteur à eau légère la matière fissile se présente sous forme de petits cylindres en oxyde d'uranium fritté dits «pastilles». Un certain nombre de ces pastilles est empilé dans un tube - dit tube de gainage ou gaine - scellé aux deux extrémités par des bouchons soudés afin d'isoler la matière fissile du milieu extérieur; cet ensemble forme ce qu'on appelle un crayon combustible. 2, record 1, French, - tube%20de%20gainage%20de%20combustible
