Abstract: In a component for connecting a shaft to a clamping holder that can receive a rotor, the clamping holder is able to be inserted into a cup-shaped housing and is able to be fixed there by fasteners. On the housing base of the housing is a connector for connecting the housing to the shaft in a torque-proof manner. The fasteners are arranged with their base surface on the outer lateral surface of the housing, and can be brought into engagement with the clamping holder by bores present in the housing. The fasteners have at least one recess in the base surface, such that they rest with their base surface on the outer lateral surface only in some regions.
