Spanish term or phrase: mangueras (de elevación y aplicación)
Hi all,

I’m currently working on a text about a blade holder for use in paper machines, and I’ve come across the following:

Estos balancines articulados están unidos a la contralámina (parte superior del portaláminas) y ejercen una acción muy localizada sobre la lámina por medio de dos "mangueras (de elevación y aplicación)" anterior y posterior, alimentadas neumáticamente de una manera independiente, y que están situadas entre los referidos balancines y su base

Does anyone have any suggestions?

Kind regards,

Jack

To me a hose is usually larger than a tube... these sound like hydraulic tubes.

However, Liz's reference shows that "hose" is commonly used in these machines. I still stand by my suggestion anyway.
