A torque transmitting assembly comprises a shaft (20), an article (22) mounted on the shaft and a device secured to the shaft for transmitting torque between the shaft and the article. The device comprises an element (23) which extends at least part the way round the shaft (20) and frictionally engages the shaft at two or more locations which lie in a first plane extending perpendicular to a second plane in which lies the longitudinal axis of the shaft. The first plane forms an angle with a third plane extending perpendicular to the longitudinal axis of the shaft, which angle is no greater than tan<-><1> mu , where mu is the coefficient of friction between the shaft (20) and the element (23). |
