Abstract
A rotatable machine component with a ring of resilient material secured to it in the vicinity of at least one axially projecting collar. The collar has a continuous annular groove around it that cuts into its contour radially, and the ring is secured in the groove just by snapping into it. The ring and the rotatable component rest loosely against each other, when the component is not rotating, without internal tension in the ring.
