Abstract

The core (4), of plastically deformable material, is supported and fastened in the hollow cylindrical outer part (2), of relatively hard material, on a supporting shoulder (6). Moreover, especially good results can be aimed for if the core (4) is slightly mushroom shaped and exhibits a disc (7) with a shank (8). The disc (7) can accommodate temperature determined dilatations especially well.
