German term

beweglicher/loser Kegelbund

German to English Tech/Engineering Automotive / Cars & Trucks
Aus einer Produktbeschreibung von Spurverbreiterungssystemen:

"Mit losem Kegelbund" oder
"Mit beweglichem Kegelbund".

Inhaltlich sind beide Sätze identisch.

Es geht um Radbolzen, bei dem der Sitz (Kegel- oder Kugelform) nicht Bestandtteil des Bolzens, sondern davon unabhängig ist (ähnlich einer Unterlegscheibe).

floating/loose seating washer

"floating" implies that the washer is fitted to the bolt and retained in some way, leaving the bolt able to e.g. turn independently of the washer, whereas "loose" implies that the bolt and seating washer are completely separate. At least, that's my stab at it.
Good luck
