inner and outer, beginning and end are two options IMHO
Mario Freitas May 14, 2014:
Yes, Meirs, I found references to "bobinas de chapa" (steel sheet coils), "fita de aço" (the strip used to fasten it), and "solda de topo" (butt welding used to weld the strip). But I coundn't find out how they call the coil's head and tail in PT.
meirs May 14, 2014:
head & tail are the two ends of the coil - a strip (of metal) is welded to each end

I think that in this context it is not important to translate head and tail. If you say "ambas as extremidades" you will not lose information.
