Finnish term or phrase: valutartunta
From a description of building insulation products:

"
[kyseinen eriste] voidaan asentaa niin betoni- kuin puurunkoon ja levyn ulkopinta voidaan verhoilla puujulkisivulla tai vanhennettu levy rapata suoraan levyn pintaan. Esimerkiksi betonirunkoon levyt kiinnitetään joko valutartunnalla, laastiliimaamalla tai PU-liimavaahdolla ja kiinnitys varmistetaan muutamalla mekaanisella kiinnikkeellä.
"

"valutartunta" = ???

(Perhaps this refers to adhesion that occurs with the drying of poured concrete? If so, I don't know the usual English term for this.)
