German term or phrase: gestifteten Stahlnadeln
Hi all,

This term is used in reference to an ISO clip, that has a "30 mm gestifteten Stahlnadeln". Unfortunately I don't have any more information than this so any help is greatly appreciated.

Kind regards,

Helene

Explanation:
According to the corrected context we are dealing with nails.
I would waive any translation of "gestiftet" as it is obvious that it refers to the shape of nails.

1 hr
  -> Thanks, Kim. Needles they certainly aren't. Pins might just about fit.

agree  Gudrun Maydorn (X): I fully agree. In this context "gestiftet" just means that the nails (Stifte) are already fitted to the plastic clips.
2 hrs
  -> Thanks. Asker preferred to wait for confirmation.

neutral  Johannes Gleim: "gestiftet" is not "hardened". The remainder is OK. // New context.

  -> What happened to your original proposal - "steel needles" - also Confidence Level 5?
