The invention relates to a coupling for fixedly, i.e. non-flexibly, connect free ends of two shaft together. The connection is releasable. A typical field of application is in pumps. The coupling has one generally cylindric, solid muff adapted to be fixedly secured to one shaft. The other muff is split in two, along a plane parallel with the axis of the respective shaft. All parts are made free of play when they are secured to the shafts. The invention facilitates maintenance work, e.g. in replacement of packing rings in a pump. It also facilitates the manufacture of the coupling.
