Abstract
A tension sleeve for a stuffing machine on which is predisposed a casing supply prior to connection of the tension sleeve to the stuffing machine. A sizing means is attached to the tension sleeve by a nosepiece. The nosepiece has a collar extending into a nesting relationship with the tension sleeve. A stop on the nosepiece limits the nesting relationship and also positions and locates the sizing means on the nosepiece. A one-way lock on the collar and aft of the stop attaches to the tension sleeve and a second one-way lock forward of the stop attaches to the sizing means.
