French term or phrase: bouterolle
What is the English equivalent when the word is used to mean the following:

"Deux grands types existent : les rivets pleins et les rivets semi-forés. Ces derniers ont subi une étape supplémentaire lors de la fabrication avec la création d'un trou cylindrique plus ou moins profond sur la partie opposée à la tête. Le sertissage se faisant alors en retournant la paroi sur elle-même en formant une bouterolle."

"...formation d'un bouterolle par poinçonnage de l'extrémités du rivet..."

"...boutelrolle noyée dans un alésage OR dépassant la face externe..."

Thanks very much in advance!

Explanation:
"bouterolle" seems sometimes to be used for naming the "hat" of a rivet. At least in the description of their use.

I agree with Tony M that this is a bizarre use of the word here. But the source is the source. We need to find a translation.

Notes to answerer
Asker: Thanks for your help! I came the conclusion that in this particular context it was being used to refer to the "tail" of the rivet after it had been bucked. Thanks again!
