After inserting the band, a bracket is placed over the end plate with one end inserted in the pocket and the other reversely bent to engage end plate edge. The bracket has a tang engageable by the piston rod and is held in position by the housing so that the load is equally distributed between both ends of the end plate. A method for converting an end connection of the double-fold type to a connection capable of longitudinal insertion between a drum and housing.
