A spindle arrangement such as a machine tool spindle which rotates at high rotational speeds includes separate elements, which may be in the form of a counter-weight and a driving and positioning shoulder, that are mounted on the spindle nose. The separate elements are secured to the spindle nose by locking pins that arranged at an angle to the rotational axis of the spindle nose. During rotation of the spindle nose, centrifugal force gives the locking pins a component force in a direction causing the elements to be wedged and the locking pins to be pressed into the bores.
