Abstract
The invention relates to a worm shaft (10) comprising a first component (12) which bears a screw flight (14) and which has a first worm shaft end, and a second component (18) which has a second worm shaft end, wherein the axial extension (A) of the worm shaft (10) is defined by the spacing of the first worm shaft end from the second worm shaft end, wherein the axial extension (A) is fixed by connecting the first and second components (12, 18) at a predefined spacing by means of a connection member. The invention is characterized in that the axial extension (A) of the worm shaft (10) is set by the axial extension (A) of the connection member.
