ABSTRACT:
A camshaft for an internal combustion engine comprising a metal cam, a shaft inserted into a through hole formed in the cam and resin poured between the cam and the shaft to join them. The cam is formed with plural grooves which are formed in the inner periphery of the hole in parallel with the shaft and into which the resin is poured. The groove is formed fanwise so that a sectional shape of the groove is wider as it approaches the outer periphery of the cam. Thus, when the resin which is filled into the grooves at high temperature is cooled naturally and contracts, since the resin bites the cam, gap and failure of contact are not produced between the cam receiving rotational force and the resin when the camshaft is operated for the internal combustion engine.
