An antifriction element (1) for use between two relatively sliding metal com ponents (2, 3) of an adjustable steering column is locatable between the two com- ponents and is formed such that, in an unclamped state of the components, two opposed resilient flanges (7) act to urge the components away from contact with one another to allow relative free sliding of the components on the element (which is of plastics material) and, in a clamped state of the components, the flanges are deflected to allow direct contact between surfaces of the metal components to pro- vide the clamping friction.
Un élément antifriction (1) s'utilisant entre deux composants métalliques (2, 3) relativement coulissants d'une colonne de direction réglable peut se placer entre les deux composants et est conçu de sorte que, à l'état desseré des composants, deux brides élastiques, opposées (7) agissent pour repousser les composants l'un de l'autre afin de permettre un coulissement relativement libre des composants sur l'élément (qui est en matière plastique) et, à l'état serré des composants, les brides sont défléchies pour permettre un contact direct entre les surfaces des composants métalliques afin d'obtenir une friction par serrage.
