German term

Paarung

German to English Tech/Engineering Materials (Plastics, Ceramics, etc.)
I am aware of the meaning, but not sure which word to use in English. So far I've been using "combination", but I'm not happy with this choice.

Durch den Ersatz einer Stahl/Stahl- durch eine Stahl/Kunststoff-Paarung wurde eine 3-fache Lebensdauer erreicht.

Bei der Idealpaarung von PA 12G mit gehärtetem Stahl können wir den Gleitreibungskoeffizienten dadurch nochmals von 0,35 auf 0,18 senken.

Von besonders hohem Nutzen ist diese Eigenschaft, wenn PA 12G in Paarung mit Metall eingesetzt wird.

agree Yasutomo Kanazawa : I think matching would also work here. http://www.highbeam.com/doc/1G1-79572384.html

mating

Lutz--

How about "Instead of the steel-to-steel combination, mating the steel to plastic achieved a 3-fold increase in duration."
Example sentence:
