Explanation:
Dear Helena,

I think "glands" refer here to "screwnuts", which is an intermediate element which helps pass on other elements while keeping a tight environment. This is vital in the marine environment especially.

Thus, I think "prensaestopas" is much more concise than "casquillo", which is a rather general term.

good luck with your translation!
