Bonjour, je suis en train de traduire un gloassire de terminoologie electromecanique de l'anglais vers le français. Je n'arrive pas à trouver l'équivalent français de l'expression suivante "exhaust manifold to head bolts"
Ma tentative: "boulons de la tête (chapeau) de la tubulure d'échappement" mais je n'en suis pas tt à fait certain.
Merci de votre aide

: NB: depending on the exact mechanical details of the system, these might be either 'boulons' or 'vis'

: No, these are not bolts for the 'head of the manifold'! / Right, I see now! But where are you getting 'tête' from, then?

that's not what it says, I admit it's confusing but is meant is (vis de tête) du (collecteur d'échappement ) // I meant: what my proposition means is...

boulons à tête du collecteur d' échappement
Il me semble que "head bolts" se traduit par "boulons à tête".

: No, these are not bolts for the 'head of the manifold'! / No, I've checked the Wiki article, and it is clear, accurate, and quite explicit.

If you are right, the definition of "head bolt" on Wiki should in my opinion be adapted, for this is confusing.

Reference:
définition de "head bolt"
Je ne vois pas la traduction de "head" dans deux des trois solutions proposées, alors qi' il y a certainement une définition de "head bolt" sur Wikipedia.
Example sentence:
It also conflicts with common usage such as the term "head bolt", which is a threaded fastener that passes via clearance hole through a cylinder head to mate with a tapped hole in the engine block and is not intended to mate with a nut

: (cylinder) head = culasse; this has nothing to do with 'head bolts' as such / 'head bolts' SPECIFICALLY means the bolts used to hold the cylinder head onto the engine block

Why not?

Discussion
"exhaust manifold to head bolts "
=
"bolts that are used to fix the exhaust manifold to the cylinder head"
Of this I am 100% sure!
Does that make it any clearer?
