1 hr confidence: 
| pad eye tetupai Explanation: naz, this is just a calculated guess, but below is my rationale: - picture looks like a cleat (tetupai) of sort, or at least appears to be something that is used like a cleat. - various descriptions of a 'cleat': 1) A strip of wood or metal used to strengthen the surface to which rope is attached. 2) A fastener (usually with two projecting horns) around which a rope can be secured. 3) A metal or leather projection; prevents slipping. - kamus perwira gives the definition of 'tetupai' as: ~nm. kepingan kayu, logam, dan lain-lain untuk menyokong, menyambung, atau mengukuhkan sambungan. -------------------------------------------------- Note added at 1 hr 55 mins (2005-07-11 03:17:30 GMT) -------------------------------------------------- just a thought... the loop is probably what the \'eye\' is. so perhaps something in the line of \"tetupai bergelung\" or \"tetupai bermata\". |

3 hrs confidence:
| pad eye mata pelapik Explanation: pad = "pelapik, alas, pad, tempat tinggal". eye = "mata". An alternative is "mata kerek". "mata kerek = bulatan kerek" (Ref. Kamus Besar Utusan, p. 1140). "kerek = takal, kapi" = pulley. |

| pad eye pad tindik Explanation: eyebolt is bolt tindik pad is pad/alas kimpal; i think pad fits better in this instance. so pad eye/padeye = pad tindik this is just a suggestion. just like May pointed out, perhaps this can be translated as tetupai because a cleat does function like a pad eye in a lot of ways. but they don't look the same, do they? |
