Abstract
A rotatable member is provided with an axial bore that receives one end of an undersized shaft. To fill the space between the shaft and the wall of the bore and to center the shaft in the bore, the portion of the shaft that is in the bore is encircled by a sleeve provided with a longitudinal slot extending outwardly from its inner end. A set screw threaded in the rotatable member extends through the slot and tightly engages the shaft to rigidly connect the rotatable member and shaft together.
