Pinnoitettaviin

Pinnoitettaviin is a Finnish grammatical form used in technical and industrial contexts to refer to parts, surfaces, or items that are intended to receive a coating. It is the illative plural form of the participial adjective pinnoitettava, which means “to be coated” or “coatable.” The form pinnoitettaviin is used to indicate destination or target of a coating process, for example in product specifications or work instructions.

In practical use, pinnoitettaviin describes what should be coated rather than the coating itself. It appears in phrases that specify where a coating will be applied. For instance, pinnoitettaviin osiin means “to parts to be coated,” and pinnoitettaviin pintoihin can be used to denote surfaces that are to receive coating during processing. The term helps distinguish coated targets from those that do not require coating.
