Abstract
A throttle valve for controlling a fluid flow includes a throttle housing (4), a gas passage (18) in the throttle housing (4), a throttle shaft (8) which is pivotably supported in the throttle housing (4), and a throttle (6) which is connected to the throttle shaft (8). The throttle shaft (8) extends through a jacket (12) which is provided on the throttle (6) and at least partially encompasses the throttle shaft (8). After the throttle (6) is installed on the throttle shaft (8), a hardening filler material (10) creates a form-fit connection between the throttle (6) and the throttle shaft (8).
