peer agreement (net): +1intake flange Explanation: A couple of online dictionaries said "reception flange," but everything on the Web that had "reception flange" was either a patent (which aren't necessarily reliable translations when we are talking about patentsonline.com) or a German website (and we all know how a lot of translations in those aren't actual words in English - no offense meant).
