ABSTRACT OF THE DISCLOSURE A jointing device comprising two components having mutually facing surface portions which - on the two components being urged towards one another - are brought into mutually abutting relationship to define an interface between the two components is disclosed. At least one of these components is provided with at least one recess having an opening in the abutment surface portion. The respective other component is provided with at least one positioning element having a free end portion thereof extending outwardly from the abutment surface portion of the other component. The positioning element is adapted to be introduced into the recess by way of the opening. The recess has a wall surface portion disposed symmetrically with respect to an axis extending substantially perpendicularly of the abutment surface portion of the one component. The free end portion of the positioning element is provided with a centering portion of reducing cross-section towards an outer extremity of the free end portion and having an axis of symmetry alignable with the first mentioned axis of symmetry, whereby - when the two components are urged towards one another to cause the positioning element to enter the recess - only the centering portion of the positioning element is brought to bear against the symmetrical wall surface portion of the recess. The centering portion is brought to bear with sufficient force to cause material deformation of at least one of the bearing surfaces thereby to enlarge at least one of the bearing surfaces and to cause the positioning element to he positively located in the recess free of play in the axial direction and in at least one direction transverse thereto. Thereby, the two components are positioned so as to abut against one another at the interface and so as to be disposed in predetermined juxtaposition relative to one another.
