1. An arrangement for producing an electrically conductive connection between a first machine element and a second machine element, comprising:
an electrically conductive disk which is secured to a supporting body, the electrically conductive disk comprising a non-woven impregnated with an electrically conductive material,
wherein the disk is provided with a bore for receiving the second machine element,
wherein two or more slots are introduced into the disk starting from a peripheral edge of the bore,
wherein one or more of the slots open into an expansion on a side facing radially away from the peripheral edge, and
wherein each expansion is circular and has a circumferential width that is greater than a circumferential distance between two radially extending edges delimiting a respective one of the one or more slots.
