An apparatus for mutually aligning and rotatably supporting similarly shaped facing circumferential surfaces of at least two members, e.g., for producing a circumferential weld, has an endless belt, which can be placed and secured around the adjoining circumferential surfaces. The belt is longitudinally flexible but axially stiff. The radially acting tension of the belt aligns the members. A loop gap formed between two belt guide rollers allows welding in the tensioned state. The tension is obtained by a tension roller acting in the belt loop and a drive engaging in said belt makes it possible to rotate the members in the tensioned state.
