Abstract: A system for connecting two ferrules of an axial compressor case. A ferrule includes a female flange, while the other ferrule includes a male flange. Both the female flange as well as the male flange are substantially annular and include a proximal face intended to be integral with the ferrule, and a distal face. The male flange is intended to be introduced into a space bound by an axial extension of the female flange. The system further includes a trim intended to be introduced behind the male flange into the space and clamped between the proximal face of the male flange and a surface of the extension substantially opposite in order to space them apart and thus clamp the distal faces of both flanges one against the other.
