Dutch term or phrase: velsrandje

Source text: "De Fuel Prime pomp wordt normaal na gebruik met de plunjer [sic.] in de onderste stand vastgedraaid.
Ik vermoed dat bij de laatste onderhoudsbeurt de pomp niet helemaal is vastgedraaid. Tijdens het bedrijf is deze waarschijnlijk losgetrild en omhooggeschoten. Mogelijk daardoor is een velsrandje dat in het pomphuis met een pakkingring voor de afdichting van de plunjer zorgt gescheurd."

From internet, I gather that a velsrandje is a sort of metal band that holds something else fast, but what is the English term? The technical dictionaries I have offer no help. All help appreciated!

flange

Explanation:
Definitely a typo for 'felsrandje'. Can be translated by 'flange' as per Kluwer GPW. Probably formed in a folding process by a hydraulic press, for example.

Thanks, Jack, it's clearly a typo, as you (and Sindy) say. I was very puzzled as to why I couldn't find it!

flenge o-ring / plunger ring

Explanation:
Sorry, I'm really not sure about this, but here's my thinking; velsrandje, velsrand, felsrand, fels, flens, flange, flange ring, flange o-ring...

But I also found a reference to a 'plunger ring'.... Hope this helps.

sorry, that should have read "FLANGE O-RING"

chime

Explanation:
I found this on eurlex.eu
vi) één diagonaal op de felsrand van de deksel, met het zwaartepunt recht boven het trefpunt
vi) one diagonally on to the top chime, with the centre of gravity directly above the point of impact
