GLOSSARY ENTRY (DERIVED FROM QUESTION BELOW)
English term or phrase:draft angle

English to Swedish translations [PRO]
Tech/Engineering - Engineering (general)
English term or phrase: draft angle
Sentence: General draft angle 1° unless otherwise stated

Occurs in technical drawing of collection cone for gas detection unit.
English explanation (from wikipedia):
In engineering, draft is the amount of taper for molded or cast parts perpendicular to the parting line. It can be measured in degrees or mm/mm (in/in).
Consider the fabrication of a hollow plastic box, without lid. Once the plastic has hardened around the mold, the mold must be removed. As the plastic hardens, it may contract slightly. By tapering the sides of the mold by an appropriate "draft angle", the mold will be easier to remove.
