French term or phrase: aller-retour primaire 1\"Ø
Hydraulic unit technical manual again. Another part which is listed. Am unsure on what this is - am hazarding a guess at some kind of cabling/piping. Would appreciate your thoughts.

primary feed / return, 1" Ø
Explanation:
It is clearly piping of 1 inch diameter; probably better to stick to the inch size rather than convert, since these things are usually done in imperial sizes, so conversion is meaningless.

There are various ways of expressing aller-retour feed / return being one of them; also supply / return, and various other options; you probably need to research for yourself the terminology commonly used in the specific field your equipment is in.
