Norwegian term or phrase: slepp
The term "slepp" arises a few time in the text:

Stav fra anodeslepp detter utav kassetten

Buts med pigg, stavslepp eller som mangler kull på niplane, skal festes med kjetting før en løser anodemasta fra staven.

Buts som er med pigg, slepp eller manglar kol, skal festast med kjetting før en løyser anodemasta fra staven.
Vi bruker også buts dersom en må erstatte slepp eller om en må vrake et avvikskull.

"residues" would be an acceptable solution?

Thanks in advance!

residue
Explanation:
See first link for a definition of this word as "siste rest av noko; slump". Second link is Google results for "anode residue".

I would use the singular, as that's what is used in your source.
