Italian term

colonnine/pistole erogatrici

Italian to English Tech/Engineering Petroleum Eng/Sci
Gli impianti di vendita carburanti sono costituiti dai serbatoi interrati per lo stoccaggio dei prodotti, dalle ___colonnine erogatrici___ dotate di una o più ___pistole erogatrici___, dal locale per il personale addetto ed eventualmente dalle strutture di servizio per gli autoveicoli e per l’attività di retailing di prodotti cosiddetti non-oil.

For colonnine I think it's clear that they're petrol pumps, but for pistole I'm not so sure - in a petrol/gas pump, what's the name of the gun-shaped part that you stick in your petrol tank?
