French term

bridé

French to English Tech/Engineering Mechanics / Mech Engineering compression station
This word crops up twice in the following text and I would appreciate any help.
The paragraph is:

Système de tenue
Torque bridée et lignes de vent pour système à gaz de tenue
Système de l'air bridé

The glossary I have been supplied with gives clamped but I have my doubts.
In this case is bridé(e) not restricted ?

TIA, any help appreciated

Sure it is the torque which is bridé, not a flange.
Take heart because the rest of the sentence is not that good French

but then torque bridée might be more than just a spelling mistake, torque is masculine so torque bridé is correct. There might be a word missing, flasque de torque bridée ?
And personnaly I am wondering what is a ligne de vent or système à gaz de tenue. What the glossary says about these ? I would be most interested to know, if you have the time to tell.
Note from asker:
Your right the text is not the best I've seen, but on the whole you can work out what's happening! It appears that de vent is d'évent as in 'vent system' and système à gaz de tenue is 'gas holding system' If you have any comments, and you have time I'm listening!!

Just a suggestion: restrained torque and ventilation lines for the main gas system

Good luck!
