A combustion chamber liner is comprised of two telescoping sections, the leading edge of the downstream section overlapping the trailing edge of the upstream section. The end of the downstream section is provided with a plurality of peripherally spaced inwardly directed bosses. The inner peripheral surface of each of the bosses is grooved to accept a metal ring. The end of the upstream section is provided with a peripherally stepped surface having a groove which in the assembled position of the liner is opposed to the groove in the spaced bosses. The two telescoping sections are joined by threading a wire locking ring into the grooves through a tangential opening. The wire ring serves to prevent movement between the sections. When cool, the dimensions of the upstream and downstream sections are such that there is a loose connection between the sections. However, the upstream section is subjected to more heat than the downstream section, causing it to expand to provide a tight fit
