French term or phrase: jeu de chasse
Hi I am translating a document detailing how to raessembly a particular industrial machine after shipping. There is a list of tools which are required and "jeu de chasse" is one of them. I cannot seem to find the translation of this.
Some other tools in the list are: pince multiprises; clés dynamométriques; colliers d’électricien
Thanks

agree  chris collister: Or just "set of punches". The "pins" may be bigger than mere goupilles

  -> Thanks, Chris! Yes, "set of punches" keeps the options open, and one would hope that whoever is putting this thing back together would have some idea of what's needed. =)

agree  David Goward: "set of puches" too.
