A torque-measuring shaft includes a measuring shaft disposed on a shaft axis of the torque-measuring shaft, loadable in torsion and having at least one rotationally symmetric surface region disposed coaxially with the shaft axis as well as a measuring device disposed on the measuring shaft for measuring a torsion of the measuring shaft, wherein the torque-measuring shaft has a material weakening disposed in radial direction inside the measuring shaft, eccentrically relative to the shaft axis.
