French term

point d\'accroche

French to English Tech/Engineering Metallurgy / Casting Painting aluminium
Hello,

The doc is about coating alumnium parts.

A sub-section is entitled "Painting" and reads thus:


"Le système choisi devra être soumis à l’approbation de CLIENT et devra comprendre une procédure de réparation permettant de reprendre les **points d’accroche** éventuels ainsi que les défauts superficiels ou en profondeur jusqu’au substrat.

Le système proposé devra subir un test au brouillard salin acétique à 5 %, suivant la norme NF EN ISO 9227, avec des durées de 500, 1000 et 1500 heures."

So, unless I'm completely off-beam, "points d'accroche" are defects. However, I don't really know what they are and so cannot begin to think of a translation.

UK English if possible, please.

Any help very gratefully received.

Thank you!

Carlos Segura Oct 27, 2015:
What do you know about the painting process? Are these castings lifted using hooks or suchlike and painted whilst suspended from these hooks? If so, perhaps some re-finishing is required in some of these "points d'accrochage", which I would call "lifting points".

Another possibility is that this refers to blemishes on the paint that might be produced during machining, assembly, installation... (knocks, marks from clamps, lifting hooks...). In this case, "points d'accrochage" could simply be translated as "damages".

Proposed translations

irregular and coarse points

accroche as opposed to lisse / smooth and the above would convey this meaning
