The invention relates to a component for holding down measuring leads and measuring devices in a groove ( ), provided therefor and having holes ( ), of a machine part ( ). It is characterized in that the component is designed in the form of a disk ( ) which has a cutting edge ( ) on its circumference, the cutting edge ( ) not being formed continuously over the entire circumference but consisting of two partial cutting edges ( &Prime;) circumferentially opposite one another. In addition, the disk ( ) has a central opening ( ) in the form of a hexagon socket. For fitting, the disk ( ) is put into the hole ( ) in such a way that its two partial cutting edges ( &Prime;) point in the longitudinal direction of the groove ( ), then a hexagon socket key is inserted into the opening ( ) of the disk ( ) and the key is turned while the disk ( ) is pressed down at the same time, so that the cutting edges ( &Prime;) cut into the material of the machine part ( ) and jam tight.
