Spanish term

Teclas

Spanish to English Other Livestock / Animal Husbandry Pork industry
Dear friends,

I am translating large document about pork industry. Please help me translate the term "teclas" in the context below:

Corresponde al cuarto central. Con corte recto en ambos lados. Con plateada. Con teclas, mantener la forma del lomo. Sin hematomas, coágulos, pelos, cartílagos, huesos, petequias y sin cortes. Espesor de grasa de 3 a 5mm.

Panceta obtenida del cuarto central en Sala de Desposte. Durante el proceso se debe eliminar el resto de manteca y teclas rotas, pleura y cortes profundos.

Thanks

Butchering instructions The only hog butchering tools I could find that would serve that function would be hooks. See video at: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=k-NMqLPh7SU
I also thought of clamps.

Button ribs

I think this refers to a rather obscure cut of pork known as button ribs. These are small, bony & not very meaty pieces of meat from the pork loin (lomo). I have never seen these offered for sale in a market or butcher shop, or on a menu in a restaurant.
Here are a couple of references in English:

I am not questioning Tom's findings as every country may have a term for it, as is so often the case with cuts of meat, whether beef, pork, or other.

I, however, found these links referring to "rib fingers" or "finger trimmings" which I have honestly never heard of, or certainly not in my country:

Las Teclas son el corte proveniente del hueso intercostal del vacuno, es decir, junto al lomo liso y vetado. Por la ubicación y características, es un corte muy sabroso y tierno, que viene en delgadas tiras, haciéndolo ideal para el picoteo y previas del asado.
