inutilizzabili

Inutilizzabili is the plural form of inutilizzabile, an Italian adjective meaning not usable or unable to be used. It describes objects, devices, tools, or parts that cannot be used, either because of damage, wear, obsolescence, or regulatory constraints.

The term is commonly used in technical, industrial, and administrative contexts. It can modify nouns such as componenti inutilizzabili, pezzi inutilizzabili, or apparecchi inutilizzabili, and appears in maintenance reports, inventories, safety notices, and procurement documents to indicate that an item should be discarded, repaired, or replaced rather than used.

Etymology and nuance: the word derives from the prefix in- combined with utilizzare (to use), producing inutilizzabile with the sense of “not usable.” The plural form inutilizzabili agrees with masculine or mixed-gender plural nouns. In some contexts, inutilizzabile emphasizes permanent unusability, while non utilizzabile is a broader, sometimes more neutral alternative. Some contexts distinguish between items that are temporarily non utilizzabili due to fault and those that are permanently unusable.
