A device for producing a shrink-fitted member by arranging a hollow type pillar shaped ceramic body inside a metal pipe and shrink-fitting them, the pillar shaped ceramic body comprising:

• an outer peripheral surface and an inner peripheral surface in a direction substantially parallel to an axial direction;
• and a first end face and a second end face in a direction substantially perpendicular to the axial direction,
• wherein the device comprises:
• an arm drivable in the axial direction of the metal pipe;
• a chuck mechanism provided at a tip of the arm, the chuck mechanism comprising:
• gripping portions capable of gripping at least a part of the inner peripheral surface of the pillar shaped ceramic body;
• and protruded portions each having a surface capable of being in contact with at least a part of the first end face of the pillar shaped ceramic body;
• and
• a heating mechanism for heating the metal pipe.
