A method of producing a reinforcement element for reinforcing a structural element in a motor vehicle includes the following steps: pultruding a support element having a longitudinal axis that extends, when in use, along a longitudinal axis of the structural element, the support element having a plurality of outer faces that extend in the direction of the longitudinal axis; placing an adhesive on at least one of the outer faces of the support element; and cutting the pultruded support element to size.

Method of producing a reinforcement element

A reinforcing element for reinforcing structural elements in vehicles includes: a support having at least one reservoir, which has an outlet opening; an adhesive, which is arranged in the reservoir; and a dispensing element having a separating element and a propulsion element; wherein, when the propulsion element is actuated, the separating element is moved through the reservoir, with the result that the adhesive is dispensed from the reservoir through the outlet opening.
