Appears in a design guide for fixing trim parts to vehicles. Here is one example:
Vis ou clou plus robustes que les empiochages.
Even the client could not help - just could explain that "pioche" is a pick (which I knew!). I have seen "eyelet" fastening elsewhere in Proz - but has anyone out there got any better expressions? Help much appreciated!

hooking-in
EMPIOCHE. Emplâtre, niais. C'est un empioche (enpioche): «Ce garçon raisonne comme un pioche». (FLERS, Miguette).
EMPLÂTRE. L'Académie ne le donne que comme substantif. Nous l'employons aussi comme adjectif: Il est bien emplâtre, sans habileté, niais.

eyelet fastening
Erklärung:
I have had a good look through all my references and this is the only thing that seems to be a possible third way of fixing the airbag system.

Other parts of car (e.g. accelerometer, etc.,) are fixed by means of "studs", which are very similar to eyelets. Perhaps "studding" might be a better answer.

2-b) Etude de la solution N^2 "pièce surmoulée avec insert métallique
Pour cette solution le fil (métallique) est soudé dans sa partie inférieure sur une platine. Dans la partie supérieure, le fil est surmoulé avec des matiéres plastiques. L'ensemble est mis en position par "empiochage" (voir figure ci-duessous) et maintenu en position par une vis (voir DR3).
C'est donc accroché dans la lumière montré.

Note: Eylet fastening looks similar to the figure in my reference, but hooking-in is more general (and even better).

Comment: "Thank you for this - it seems to match up with some of the responses I've had when consulting with the client engineers. I wish they could send me a picture of one!! Thanks again."

pop-rivet
Not much better than a guess, I'm afraid, but seems to fit the context. Pop rivets are very widely used, but are not as strong as screws, rivets or pins (or nails).

After looking at the KudoZ ref. below, I still think that pop rivet could fit. After all, being hollow, they do look very much like eyelets.

| Hi. I did see the Open Glossary entry, but it is not applicable in this case - as I said in my note at the top of the posting. Thanks for pointing it out, though! |
