A device for the coaxial connection of a surgical rotating tool to a shaft and the method of forming such a device. The device comprises a shaft defining a central axis and having a front end, a hollow body having a first end for engaging the front end of the shaft and a second end for engaging the tool. The hollow body further includes a wall defining a cavity coaxial to the central axis, the wall has at least one deformed impression thereby defining at least one projection in communication with the cavity. The at least one projection is engaged with the shaft to produce a rotatively and axially fixed connection between the shaft and the hollow body.
