Italian term

contropezzo

Italian to English Tech/Engineering Engineering (general) Welding
In a pipe specification
The section on "Saldatura con scanalatura" (Groove welding)

Il termoelemento viene quindi riscaldato e premuto sulla piastra su cui va il pezzo fino ad ottenere una scanalature di xxx mm di profondita. Anche il contropezzo deve essere riscaldato contemporaneamente. Appena i lembi della scanalatura e del contropezzo sono allo stato plastico, essi vengono uniti realizzando la saldatura.
Opposing piece/part ?? Is there a special term for this?
Thanks again.

backplate

This is presumably a piece that supports the pipe in the area where heat is applied, to prevent it from sagging while in its plastic state. It would be heated independently, to avoid heat draining away from the pipe that is being welded. Whether is is a 'backplate', 'support', 'pipe trough', or whatever depends on what it looks like! (hence my grading this answer only as 'medium')

tongue

The elements are the tongue and groove welding joints. You can see the example in the second case of the reference. :)
