Spanish term

bridas de res valona

Spanish to English Tech/Engineering pipes
Tuberías - Accesorios - Filtros, Juntas, Ochos, Reductores, Tapones, etc. Válvulas (3vías, ángulo, globo, retención, mariposa, compuerta, etc.), Bridas (soldadas, roscadas, de enchufe, de cara plana, ***cara res valona***, etc.).


This is a text talking about pipes. Any ideas what 'cara res valona' flanges are?? Could they be 'raised-face flanges'?

Many thanks in advance,

Pipe 2D I meant Pipe 2D - not 'a' Pipe 2D! Sorry!

bridas I did too, before posting this question. I get the impression it might be a typo, but still don't know what they mean. The text is about a Pipe 2D and AutoCAD, if that helps. Thanks in advance, Sheila

Sorry, Sheila. Brida is flange, but I made an internet search in Spanish of your question and did not get any hits.

res valona o resbalona

Si resbalona, creo q sería mas "resbalosa o deslizante" q resbalona, y así sería una "sliding bridle", esto porque lo de res valona no lo asocio con nada. Ojalá fuera acertada mi propuesta. Suerte!

Walloon brides

brida is clearly BRIDE(S) i.e. a conntecting bar.
res valona = probably "walloon type"
cara res valona = with a Wallon surface

the only thing that I cannot help with is: how does a Walloon thing look like?
Anyway, hope this leads you to somewhere.
Peer comment(s):

agree Robert INGLEDEW : Sorry, e-rich, but brida is flange in English. Bride in Spanish is novia.

Robert, I know the difference between a novia and a flange but must have had a Freudian slip here for a second
