Abstract:
In a steering column for a motor vehicle steering mechanism, a tubular first member and a second member are arranged in coaxial and partly coextensive relation. The second member fits into the first member. At least the first member is deformed transversely of the axial direction into gripping surface contact with the second member so that the two members rotate as a unit about their co-axes when the steering column is turned without any axial movement between them up to a given level of applied axial force. Above the given level the members can telescope one into the other in the event of a collision.
