connecting angle Explanation: Caution Although 'cantonale' alone is 'angle iron', but based on the description to be translated - this would more precisely be cantonale d'unione. Translation piece "Componente che rinforza gli spigoli laterali dell'imballaggio consentendo un'unione reciproca di fondo, fiancate e testate cantonale 1 (ind. metall.), angle; 2 cantonale di ferro (mur.), angle iron; 3 cantonale d'unione (di travatura metallica) (ed. - ind.), connecting angle, joint angle. [source Hoepli's The Complete Technical Dictionary] Angle iron usually runs in long strips all the way along and edge - where 'connecting angle' are shorter pieces for reinforcing the corners of joints - especially on boxes. Connecting angles reinforce the corners ("spigoli") of a container. [btw make sure it's not spelled 'connecting angel' which is a common mistake ;) ] -------------------------------------------------- Note added at 37 mins (2010-06-24 12:30:32 GMT) -------------------------------------------------- [btw my "along and edge" above is not a typo - I meant to indicate, the 'angle iron' creates an edge, but 'connecting angles' don't necessarily create an edge.] Example sentence(s):
