silly remark, sorry, but nevertheless I stick with a journal for an astap
Peer comment(s):

agree Ken Cox : Supported by Kluwer, and makes sense in the context (blued gudgeon pins would also be possible with insufficient lubrication, but they are part of the rod/piston assembly).\\ no (but the *end* of a shaft can be a 'tap' = gudgeon, journal or pivot))

thanks Ken, does Kluwer actually suggest something else than zuiger-/pistonpen for gudgeon pin...?//thanks for looking, a tap is indeed a beast

thanks Kate!
agree LAB2004 : I know this has already been graded, but just to confirm this is the term used by a large truck manufacturing company I translate for, and is provided as such in their glossary.
