Swedish term

blindplåtarna

Swedish to English Tech/Engineering Engineering (general) instructions for installing a hot water heater
I found the hit for "blind plates" but can anyone tell me what these are? Never heard of them. Perhaps they have another name?

Source is:

blanking plate

Found this in one of my dictionaries. Seems to match what I find for the blindplåt (https://www.elfa.se/elfa3~se_sv/elfa/init.do?toc=19977; you can search in different languages).

But doest this fit your context?
Note from asker:
I think you are likely correct. As it says in the entry header, it is about installing a hot water heater. I think these are metal blanks put at the end of pipes connections.
