Abstract
A shroud having an annular member extending along an axis from a first end to a second end. The annular member has an inside surface radially inward from an outside surface that diverges from the first end towards the second end relative to the axis. The shroud further includes a flange that extends radially outward from the outside surface and a recess, each located at the second end. The recess extends radially outward from the inside surface and circumferentially about the axis. An axial extent of the recess at least partially coincides with an axial extent of the flange.
